โฆ Synopsis
Second harmonic generation (SHG) was used to measure the temperature dependence of the reorientation activation volume of the side-chain copolymer poly(disperse red 1 methacrylate-co-methyl methacrylate) (DR1-MMA). The decay of the SHG signal from poled films of DR1-MMA was recorded at hydrostatic pressures up to 3060 atm and at different temperatures between 25ยฐC below the glass transition temperature (T g ) to 35ยฐC above it. The activation volume, โฌV*, decreased with increasing temperature. The data suggests that the coupling between chromophore reorientation and the long-range motion of the polymer is stronger for the DR1-MMA side-chain system than in previously measured guest-host systems.
