✦ Synopsis


The magnitude of the activation energy for diffusion, ED. is shown to be inversely dependent on the fractional free volume of the polymer above Tg. From the proportionality of ED above and below Tg, the magnitude of El, below T, is also inversely dependent on the free volume in that temperature range. While this correlation holds very well for our determinations of fractional free volume above T,, it does not correlate with the Simha-Boyer fractional free volume below Tg, contrary to expectations.

We have investigated, in terms of the Cohen-Turnbull theory, a relationship for polycarbonate (PC) glasses between average stress relaxation times, ( t o ) , and average free volume sizes, (q), obtained from positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy. This examination suggests that the minimum free

In this study, photorefractive polymer composites were developed in which polycarbonate was doped with a dual-function dopant and a photocharge generation sensitizer. The dual-function dopant has the function of providing both charge transport and optical nonlinearity. The composites' photoconductiv
