Abstract
Sol-gel processed poled silica films doped with novel nonlinear organi c materials, thiazole azo dye (TA), are prepared in high concentration . Resonance enhanced second-order nonlinear optical coefficient of d(3 3)=154 pm/V is obtained from TA doped silica film (40 wt%) for the fun damental wavelength of 1064 nm. The value d(33) is unvaried for at lea st 100 h under a high temperature condition (100 degrees C) without an y relaxation. Wavelength dependent second-order nonlinearity is also m easured.
