Tuning the properties of poly(p-phenylenevinylene) for use in all-optical switching

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We show that, as the conjugation length of poly(p-phenylenevinylene) increases, the ratio of its two-photon absorption coefficient to third-order nonlinearity at 800 nm decreases, rendering the material suitable for all-optical switching.
