New side-chain azo-polymers for optical applications: synthesis and characterization

Abstract: In this paper we report a series of side-chain polymers bearing a push-pull azo-moiety, from pseudo-stylbene type molecules. The azobenzene monomer is chemically incorporated through radical copolymerization in: poly(methacrylate), poly(styrene); and poly(oxazoline) matrices. The different classes of azo-polymers are discussed comparatively to one another from the point of view of: solubility, molecular weights, glass transition temperatures & thermal stability, chromophore contents, and as well as from the po… Show more

“…Several theoretical and experimental studies have focused their attention on the understanding and design of new chromophores with large quadratic NLO properties such as azoic compounds. [30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38] Several factors influence the electrons distribution and the nature of the HOMO and LUMO orbital. Some of these factors are noncentrosymetry, molecular geometry and the forces of the donor and acceptor electron groups.…”
