β¦ Synopsis
Third-harmonic generation measurements have been performed at 10= 1064 nm on ultrathin films of polyphenylacetylene. The nonlinearsusceptibilityX2 X ( -3~; w, w, o) wasdeterminedtobe (7.0 I! 1.0) x 10-rlesu withthephaseof~rs'equai to 152" f 5" indicating that two-and three-photon resonances contribute to the observed nonlinearity. The influence of back-reflection effects was estimated experimentally by measurements in different optical configurations. We found the experimental data could only be explained by using an evaluation procedure including all bound waves in the layer system.

New NLO dye methacrylate-methylmethacrylate copolymers were synthesized. The NLO-chromophores bound covalently to the polymer chain are: 4-cyano-4'-dialkylamino-a-cyano-stilbene, 4-cyano-4'-alkoxy-:~-cyano-stilbene and 4-cyano-4'-alkoxy-stilbene. Films spincoated from these polymers were poled by a
