ABSTRACTEpoxy based material incorporating 4-(4'-nitrophenylazo) phenylamine has been synthesized and subsequently functionalized with cinnamoyl groups. These materials can be easily solution-processed into thin films by spin-coating. The uncrosslinked polymer has excellent thermal and linear optical properties. Glass transition temperature of 115°C and degradation temperature (air) of 278°C were recorded.This material exhibits large second order nonlinear optical (NLO) effects subsequent to poling. In a poled film sample, second harmonic generation coefficient, d33, of 34 pm/V was observed at 1.06 μm. Crosslinking is brought about by exposure to UV radiation at 254 nm wavelength. In a poled and crosslinked film sample, a d33 of 22 pm/V was observed. This d33 value is less than the d33 value of the poled and uncrosslinked film sample due to photo-induced cis-trans isomerization and partial degradation of the NLO chromophores. Nevertheless, the poled and crosslinked film shows a much more stable second order response at ambient conditions compared to the poled film which has not been crosslinked.

AbstractThe design and synthesis of a family of calix[4]arene-based nonlinear optical (NLO) chromophores are discussed. The calixarene chromophores are macrocyclic compounds consisting of four simple D-π-A units bridged by methylene groups. These molecules were synthesized such that four D-π-A units of the calix[4]arene were aligned along the same direction with the calixarene in a cone conformation. These nonlinear optical super-chromophores were subsequently fabricated into covalently bound self-assembled monolayers on the surfaces of fused silica and silicon. Spectroscopic second harmonic generation (SHG) measurements were carried out to determine the absolute value of the dominant element of the second-order nonlinear susceptibility, d33, and the average molecular alignment, ψ. We find a value of d33 = 60 pm/V at a fundamental wavelength of 890 nm, and ψ˜ 36° with respect to the surface normal.

AbstractThe synthesis and second-order nonlinearity study of several new polyphosphazenes were described, which are composed of a new type of Yshaped nonlinear optical (NLO) chromophores attached onto polyphosphazene. They were obtained via a post-azo coupling reaction. The resulting materials were characterized by means of 1H NMR, 31P NMR, FT-IR, UV-vis, GPC and DSC. Chromophore contents up to 14 mol% have been realized. The polymers have high glass-transition temperatures, good optical transparency, and the poled film of P3- P8 revealed a resonant d33 value in the range of 11-42 pm/V by second harmonic generation (SHG) measurements.
