Abstract
The structure/property relationships including the effects of chromoph ore functionalization and physical aging during poling on the chromoph ore orientational dynamics and intermolecular cooperativity in a class ' of poly(arylene ether)s are discussed. Second-order nonlinear optics is used to examine the thermal and temporal stability of chromophore orientation in the poled polymer films as a function of processing.
