Abstract:

Supramolecular side-chain electro-optic(EO) polyvinyl pyridine based on hydrogen bond were designed and prepared, and the hydrogen-bond between nonlinear optical(NLO) chromophore and polymer backbone was characterized by IR spectra. The studies indicated that the noncovalent interaction can suppress the dye aggregation, avoiding the macroscopic phase separation and allowing high doping concentration. Moreover, such a strategy can suppress the dipolar-dipolar interaction, and the poled EO films revealed the maximum EO coefficient value (r33) of 17.6 pm/V.

Key words: organicelectro-optic materials, hydrogen-bond, supramolecular side-chain polymer, electro-optic coefficient
