Sc. Suh et Sc. Shim, Synthesis and properties of a novel polyazomethine, the polymer with high photoconductivity and second-order optical nonlinearity, SYNTH METAL, 114(1), 2000, pp. 91-95
Condensation of N-(3-isopentyl)-3,6-diformylcarbazole and 4-[4-[bis(2-amino
ethyl)amino]phenylazo]nitrobenzene gave a new polyazomethine, Cbz1-Azo, whi
ch has a good solubility in organic solvents. The polymer possessing carbaz
ole moieties and azo type nonlinear optical chromophores in the polymer bac
kbone showed high photoconductivity and nonlinear optical property. (C) 200
