Recently, chromophores with a large figure-of-merit for incorporation into photorefractive
polymers with low glass-transition temperature have become available. However, their …

Two experimental studies of new photorefractive polymer materials are described. First, an
examination of the fabrication, stability, and photorefractive behavior of a recently-reported …

The photorefractive properties of polymer composites based on poly (N-vinyl carbazole),
doped with the sensitizer C60, the plasticizer butyl benzyl phthalate, and two series of …

A nonlinear optical chromophore for photorefractive applications containing a 2-
dicyanomethylen-3-cyano-2, 5-dihydrofuran acceptor group is presented. When doped into …

We have studied the photorefractive performance of poly (N-vinylcarbazole)-based
composites doped with various concentrations of two structurally related dipolar …

We report on the photorefractive properties of thermally stable polymer composites based on
the dye 2, N, N-dihexylamino-7-dicyanomethylidenyl-3, 4, 5, 6, 10-pentahydronaphthalene …

A series of photorefractive polymethacrylates, containing a Disperse Red type chromophore
and carbazole as charge transport agent with various spacer lengths, was synthesized and …

It is demonstrated that the microscopic mechanism of the photorefractive (PR) effect in
organic composites with low glass transition temperatures involves the formation of …

We present experimental data that show that the greatly improved performance of a new
class of photorefractive polymers [see Donckers et al., Opt. Lett. 18, 1044 (1993)] is too large …

The photorefractive properties and the phase stability of polymer composites are dependent
on the detail of the alkyl chain substituent attached to the electro-optic dye within the …
