Abstract: | Three novel nonlinear optical polyarylate polymers were prepared containing one main-chain polymer (mPAR-chr1) and two side-chain polymers (sPAR-chr1, sPAR-chr2) with different kinds of chromophores. The obtained polymers were characterized and evaluated by UV-Vis, 1H NMR, DSC and TGA. All the polymers exhibited excellent thermal stability, film forming ability and good electro-optic (EO) activity. The relationship between EO coefficients (r 33) and the chromophore concentration of the three polymers had been also characterized and discussed. There were no obvious differences found in EO activity between main-chain and side-chain polyarylates with the same chromophore (chr1). Due to the stronger electron-withdrawing tricyanopyrroline acceptor and the steric effect of the large dendritic groups of chromophore 2 (chr2), polymer sPAR-chr2 showed the largest EO cofficients (64 pm V?1) in these new polymers. |
