Temperature dependence of the optical poling of azobenzene polyimide films

The temperature dependence of all-optical poling of azobenzene–polyimide films was experimentally investigated. The poling efficiency decreased with the increase of the sample temperature during the optical poling processes. The experimental result can be explained by considering the relation between the lifetime of the triplet-state of the azobenzene molecule and the repetition rate of the laser pulses used in the poling processes.     

Orientation of azobenzene molecules in polymer films induced by all-optical poling

A model of the alignment of azobenzene molecules in polymer film induced by all-optical poling is proposed and verified by experiment. We found that when the writing beams of frequencies ω and 2ω are both linearly polarized with their polarization directions parallel to each other, azobenzene molecules tend to reorient to the direction perpendicular to the writing beams polarization. At the end of the writing process, more molecules orient to the direction perpendicular to the writing beams polarization than those which orient to the parallel direction. The alignment of molecules parallel or perpendicular to the polarization of the writing beams is characteristic of polarity or no polarity, respectively. The alignment of molecules along the polarization of writing beams results in the second order nonlinearity in the polymer film. According to the model, a new method to improve the optical poling efficiency is put forward.     

Stable frequency doubling by all-optical poling in dye-doped polymer optical fibers

We present experimental studies of all-optical poling (AOP) in large-core dye-doped poly(methyl methacrylate) plastic optical fibers. We show that the confinement of light within the fiber core permits us to reach the upper limit of second harmonic generation achievable by AOP using repeated trans-cis isomerization. Quantification of the output power indicates self-seeding that can counteract relaxation of the orientation during readout of the induced nonlinearity.     

Study on all-optical switching characteristics of ethyl orange-doped polymer film

The all-optical switching polymer thin films with azobenzene dye ethyl orange as the guest material and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as the host material were prepared by adulteration and spin-coating methods. The all-optical switching characteristics of the samples were measured at different intensities and modulation frequencies of the pump beam (532 nm, CW); the influence of doping concentration on the all-optical switching effect of the films was studied. It is shown that, under room temperature conditions and with a low pump power of 6 mW, the all-optical switch has a response time of about 2 ms and a modulation depth of 45%, and the maximal modulation depth reaches 90%. In addition, it is found that samples with higher doping concentration show a stronger all-optical switching effect but a larger background signal, and good switching performance is obtained by choosing the doping concentrations from 0.8% to 2% of the sample.     

Carrier-envelope phase measurement by all-optical poling with a polar side-chain polymer

Dependence of all-optical poling efficiency on carrier-envelope phase (CEP) could be measured using photoisomerization of dye molecules which are covalently bound to a polymer main chain and have large difference in static dipole moment between the ground state and excited state. Increased chromophore density leads to an order of magnitude reduction in signal-detection time from a dye doped polymer. Analysis of all-optical poling experiments with CEP changes clearly showed the presence of polarization restoring force to zero polarization. This enables resetting of SH activity in the all-optical poling process to be used for fast response loop of CEP stabilization. Phenomenological model could explain well the difference in the growth-and-decay dynamics of poling between sample of dye doped in polymer studied previously and that grafted to a polymer main chain used in the present paper.

Quasi-phase-matched gratings printed by all-optical poling in polymer films

The all-optical poling technique permits polar orientation of molecules. For efficient poling of thin films the relative phases, amplitudes, and polarizations of the two interfering beams must be controlled. We present an original stable one-arm interferometer that is specific to the recording of two-color interference. It relies on the index dispersion of optical glasses. This interference technique permits true real-time nonperturbative monitoring of the polar orientation process and easy all-optical poling of thin-film materials without the need for phase control. This new configuration opens the door to the realization of customized phase-matched wave-guided frequency-conversion devices for the near infrared.     

Permanent light-induced polar orientation via all-optical poling and photothermal cross-linking in a polymer thin film

An epoxy-based crosslinkable polymer functionalized with nonlinear optical (NLO) photochromic dye known as Red Acid Magly was polarly oriented via thermally-assisted all-optical poling to enhance the photostability of the induced order. During the writing (seeding) process the film was cross-linked by heating with a hot-plate and irradiated simultaneously by the coherent superposition of the 1.06 μm fundamental and 0.532 μm second harmonic beams of a nanosecond pulsed Nd:YAG laser. We demonstrate that crosslinking between the polymer matrix and the pendant chromophore groups induced during the thermally-assisted all-optical poling procedure results in a stable light-induced second order susceptibility.     

Evanescent polarization holographic recording of sub-200-nm gratings in an azobenzene polyester

I demonstrate high-resolution polarization holographic recording with evanescent waves in a thin film of an azobenzene polyester deposited directly on the hypotenuse of a highly refractive prism. A spatial frequency greater than 7000 lines/mm and diffraction efficiency greater than 1% have been achieved. It was found that diffraction efficiency increases in the dark after the writing beams have been switched off. The biphotonic effect found in other azobenzene polymers, which converts cis states of the azobenzene to trans states followed by an ordering process that is due to aggregation, is proposed as the reason for this increase in diffraction efficiency.
