Time-resolved studies of photoinduced birefringence in azobenzene dye-doped polymer films.
We measured transient photoinduced birefringence (delta n) in various azobenzene dye films by pumping with a nanosecond pulse at 532 nm and probing at 633 nm. The switch-on times for the photoinduced birefringence range from nanoseconds to milliseconds and are systematically related with the lowest optical transition energies for those films. Moreover, our results suggest that the transient pho...
متن کاملPhotoinduced birefringence and diffraction efficiency in azo dye doped or grafted polymers: theory versus experiment of the temperature influence
We have investigated the influence of the temperature on the photoinduced birefringence as well as on the diffraction efficiency of azo dye doped or grafted polymers. The samples are composed of three polymer matrices containing 2, 5-dimethyl-4-( p-nitrophenylazo anisole). We propose two theoretical models to explain the experimental increase of both phenomena when the temperature is decreased....
متن کاملSurface-Relief Gratings and Stable Birefringence Inscribed Using Light of Broad Spectral Range in Supramolecular Polymer-Bisazobenzene Complexes
The linear and nonlinear optical properties of azobenzenecontaining polymers are of immense, yet unredeemed, technological interest. The potential applications aremanifold, including, e.g., optical information storage and processing, photoswitching, diffractive optics, and photomechanics. Many of the attractive features are brought about by the photoisomerization of the azobenzenemoieties, whic...
متن کاملHydrogen bonding effects on the reorganization energy for photoinduced charge separation reaction between porphyrin and quinone studied by nanosecond laser flash photolysis.
Alcohol concentration dependences of photoinduced charge separation (CS) reaction of zinc tetraphenyl-porphyrin (ZnTPP) and duroquinone (DQ) were investigated in benzonitrile by a nanosecond laser flash photolysis technique. The photoinduced CS reaction was accelerated by the addition of alcohols, whereas the addition of acetonitrile caused little effect on the CS reactions. The simple theory w...
متن کاملPhotoinduced Molecular Reorientation and Relaxation in a Liquid Crystalline Polymer
In this paper we present a study of photoinduced eeects, including molecular relaxation in a side chain liquid crystalline polymer. In particular, we have studied relaxation phenomena using Ellipsometry and Photoinduced Birefringence in pump-probe experiments, which were carried out as a function of temperature, optical pump intensity and sample preparation and history. Two speciic areas were i...
