Cb. Yoon et al., SYNTHESIS AND 3RD-ORDER NONLINEARITY OF DYE-CONTAINING POLY(1,4-PHENYLENEVINYLENE) DERIVATIVE, Synthetic metals, 84(1-3), 1997, pp. 273-274
New poly(1,4-phenylenevinylene) (PPV) derivative containing Disperse R
ed 1 (PBDR1PV) was prepared through organic-soluble precursor route. T
his polymer was characterized by conventional spectroscopic methods (U
V-visible, IR, NMR) and the third-order nonlinear optical coefficient
was determined by using third harmonic generation (THG) technique. The
measured chi((3)) value is about 2.5 x 10(-12) esu.
