Abstract
This article reports a synthesis a new class of nonlinear optical (NLO) polymer, containing 3-methyl-4-cyano-5-dicyanomethylidene-2-oxo-3-pyrroline (TCP) acceptor. TCP chromophore was synthesized and characterized by Uv-Vis absorption, 1H NMR, and mass-spectrometry. The titled polymer shows high thermal stability and large optical nonlinearity. A high glass transition temperature of 125°C was determined by DSC measurement, and measured electrooptical (EO) at wavelength 1.31 mm was equal to 37.4 pm/V. The order parameter of these films evaluated by absorption was equal to about 24%.
