Abstract
The cubic nonlinear-optical susceptibility of solutions and films of new me talloorganic polymers is studied by the z-scan method using 1064-nm, 40-ps laser pulses. The contribution of the electronic susceptibility is measured with the help of probe beams with circular and linear polarisations. The g reatest electronic susceptibility amounting to -9.5 x 10(-11) and -1.7 x 10 (-10) CGSE unit's is found in films of poly[(arylene)(ethynylene)silylene] and chromium-doped bis(aren)polyacrylonitrile, respectively.
