We have observed fairly strong second-harmonic generation (SHG) in vacuum-deposited thin films of phthalocyanines (Pc) having central metal atoms; Co, Cu, Zn, VO, TiO, Pb, Sn and a metal-free Pc. Based on the remarkable spectral dependences, the SHG was concluded to be due to higher-order mechanisms
The synthesis and second harmonic coefficients, d33, and d3t as well as the related susceptibilities, :t~, of two new series of (NLO-dye methacrylate)-(methyl methacrylate) copolymers were investigated. The NLO-chromophores bound covalently to the polymer chain were 4-nitro-4'-dialkylamino-ct-cyano-
This paper deals with relations between solvent diffusion and changes in second harmonic generation (SHG) in a side-group polymer with nonlinear optical (NLO) chromophores. The SHG signal of poled polymer thin films was measured as a function of time during the swelling process with methanol. The re
crograph reveals that the surface is not at all atomically flat on a micrometer scale, but instead exhibits fairly large holes (Fig. 4). The STM images clearly show both atomically flat terraces of up to 100 nm in diameter coexisting with ridges and holes, 10 nm or more in depth (Figs. 5a,b). [""I
