The linear electro-optic (EO) effect is one of the second-order nonlinear optical effects existing in a noncentrosymmetric macroscopic system. In a polymer thin film, the noncentrosymmetry is achieved by electric field poling. The magnitude of the linear EO response is determined through the orientational distribution function of hyperpolarizable molecular dipoles. The relation between the linear EO coefficient and the second-order nonlinear optical susceptibility is explained. Three different methods of measuring the linear EO coefficient of a poled nonliner optical polymer thin film are introduced and discussed. All of them make use of the interferometric technique, the difference being in the optical parameters which are interfering.

Mitsunobu 반응을 이용하여 전기광학계수 $\gamma_{33}$크고 열적 .시간적으로 안정적인 폴리이미드(polyimide)계고분자 용액인 PI-SOT(폴리이미드계 4-[N,N-bis(hydroxyethyl)amino­4'­($\beta$­cyano-$\beta$­methylsulfonyl)vinyl]azobenzene)고분자를 합성하였다. C.C. Teng의 단순반사법을 이용하여 코로나 폴링으로 극성 배향시킨 PI-SOT 박막의 전기광학계수 $\gamma_{33}$의 열안정성 및 시간안정성을 파장 632.8 nm와 852nm에서 측정하였다. 그 결과 상온에서 전기광학계수$\gamma_{33}$은 파장 632.8nm서 25.12 pm/V이고, 852 nmsns 5.40pm/V였다. 이 값들은 상온에서 60일 이상 장기간 안정적으로 유지되었으며, $100^{\circ}C$의 고온에서도 10시간내에서 6% 이내로 안정된 값을 유지하였다.

The relaxation behavior of aligned electric dipoles in a mixed polymer of P2ANS with P(VDF-TrFE) is studied with optical second harmonic generation (SHG). In this work, a macroscopic noncentrosymmetry of the spin coated film was achieved by an electrical poling. The relaxation of induced polar order of nonlinear optic(NLO) chromophores after poling leads to an insufficient long-term stability of NLO properties. In this work, we develop a new technique to suppress such kind of dipole relaxation in a poled polymer. We found that the poled dipoles in a NLO polymer were effectively immobilized by the internal electric field created by a thermally annealed ferroelectric polymer. The long-term stability in a mixed system of NLO polymer/ferroelectric polymer was successively accomplished by a series of thermal treatments applied to the mixed polymer system at a temperature of $140^{\circ}C$ for at least 1hour after poling.

콜레스테릭 액정 플리머 박막을 이용한 새로운 개념의 광섬유 원편광 거울을 제작하고 그 특성을 분석하였다. 콜레스테릭 액정 거울의 광학적 특성을 보여주는 Jones Matrix를 유도하고 실험을 통하여 검증하였다. 제작된 광섬유 원편광 거울은 선형 광섬유 레이저 공진기에서 공간적 홀버닝을 제거하는데 사용 될 수 있으며, 광섬유 내에서의 비선형 편광 변화 효과를 이용한 모드록킹 동작을 얻을 수 있다. 실험을 통해 얻은 모드 록킹 된 레이저의 펄스 폭은 630fs로 측정 되었다.

We have prepared a phenothiazine-based nonlinear optical (NLO) chromophore that displays a fairly high microscopic nonlinearity through intramolecular charge transfer. The phenothiazine unit plays important roles of contributing its high electron donating ability and connecting the resonance pathway through a conjugative effect in the cyclized ring adjacent to the aromatic ring. Theoretical calculations and an absorption spectroscopic study provided useful information concerning the microscopic nonlinearity of the chromophores. We investigated the electro-optic (EO) properties of the guest-host systems in amorphous polycarbonate containing the synthesized chromophores at different concentrations under different poling temperatures. A real-time pole and probe method provided a much greater amount of information regarding how the EO properties can arise and how they can be optimized.

Star-shaped, nonlinear optical (NLO) material was synthesized and its optical, thermal, and electro-optic properties were investigated. Three NLO-active dipolar chromophores containing a phenylene ring substituted with a bulky alkyl chain as a conjugation bridge were chemically bonded to the core of 1,1,1-tris(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethane to form a dendritic architecture. The chemical structure and purity of the chromophore were verified by NMR spectroscopy. The chromophore exhibited a broad absorption band centered at around 608 nm tailing up to 760 nm in toluene solution and also showed a discernible solvatochromic shift in more polar solvent. The chloroform solution of the dendrimer produced an absorption band with a red-shifted maximum as large as 28 nm when compared to that of the toluene solution. It was thermally stable up to $275^{\circ}C$ in a nitrogen atmosphere and had a glass transition temperature of $76^{\circ}C$. In a preliminary result, the polymer film containing the dendritic compound exhibited a shift of 19 pm/V taken at $1.55{\mu}$.

Tricyanopyrrolidene chromophores were prepared in order to compare their macroscopic nonlinear optical (NLO) properties with a conjugated structure through the long molecular axis. A thiophene or phenyl ring was tethered to an ethylenic bond; it may act as a lateral moiety to disrupt the planarity of a chromophore and lessen the electrostatic interaction. Thin film composites of these chromophores dissolved in amorphous polycarbonate (APC) were fabricated. Real time pole and probe method was employed to investigate the change of electro-optic (EO) signal during poling. The EO properties and their relaxation behaviors of the guest-host systems containing newly synthesized chromophores were investigated in detail.

Methyl 3,4-di-(2'-hydroxyethoxy)benzylidenecyanoacetate (3) was prepared and condensed with terephthaloyl chloride to yield novel Y-type polyester (4) containing 3,4-dioxybenzylidenecyanoacetate groups as NLO-chromophores, which constituted parts of the polymer main chains. The resulting polymer 4 is soluble in common organic solvents such as acetone and N,N-dimethylformamide. Polymer 4 shows thermal stability up to $280^{\circ}C$ in thermogravimetric analysis with glass-transition temperature obtained from differential scanning calorimetry near $105^{\circ}C$. The second harmonic generation (SHG) coefficient ($d_{33}$) of poled polymer films at the 1064 nm fundamental wavelength is around 2.42 pm/V. The dipole alignment exhibits high thermal stability up to near $T_g$, and there is no SHG decay below $100^{\circ}C$ due to the partial main-chain character of polymer structure, which is acceptable for NLO device applications.

${\alpha}$-Methyl styrene과 maleic anhydride를 공단량체로 사용하여 유리전이온도가 높고 내열성이 우수한 poly (${\alpha}$-methylstyrene-co-maleic anhydride) (MSMA) 기재 고분자 (substrate polymer)를 합성하고 여기에 니트로기를 가진 발색단을 고분자반응을 이용하여 도입하는 반응 및 생성된 비선형 광학 고분자의 전기 광학 특성에 대해 조사하였다. MSMA 기재 고분자에 hydroxyl기를 가지는 azo계 발색단 (chromophore) 2-[4-(4-nitrophenylazo)-N-ethylphenylamino]ethanol (DR1)을 고분자 반응 (polymer reaction)으로 maleic anhydride에 ester 결합으로 도입할 때 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) 촉매만을 쓴 것 (MSMA-D)보다 DMAP와 3-dicyclohexyl carbodiimid (DCC)를 동시에 사용한 경우 (MSMA-DC)가 DR1 발색단의 도입율이 높게 나타났다. 비선형 광학 고분자 (MSMA-DC)의 전기광학계수 ($r_{33}$)는 파장이 632.8 nm인 광원에서 18 pm/V의 값을 나타냈으며 열적 안정성도 유리전이 온도 ($T_g$)가 $175^{\circ}C$ 이상으로 우수하게 나타났다.
