Low-power phase conjugation in push-pull azobenzene compounds.
Push-pull azobenzene compounds were synthesized by the diazocoupling reaction, and low-power phase conjugation of azobenzene-compound-doped poly(methyl methacrylate) films was studied with a He-Ne laser at 632.8 nm. It is shown that this kind of polymer has appreciable third-order optical nonlinearity, with a chi((3)) of approximately 10(-4) esu in the tail of absorption.
