Highly ordered films of neat calix[4]arenes for second order nonlinear optics
Source abstract
Abstract
In substituted calix[4]‐arenes—cyclophanes consisting of four phenol moieties connected by methylene bridgesthe number and also the relative positions of the donor and/or acceptor π‐conjugated (D‐π‐A) units can be varied by changing the configuration. The Figure illustrates the cone configuration. The molecular and thin‐film NLO properties of three tetra‐D‐π‐A‐substituted calix[4]arenes, including their orientation in thin films and the stability of their NLO properties, are described. magnified image

26. Interestingly at elevated temperatures the SHG signal for low weight percentages of tetranitrocalix[4]arene 1 in the PMMA matrix decreases much faster than for high weight percentages of 1. The flexibility of the PMMA chains (Tg= 110 °C) at 100°C is already high which may explain the faster decay for films containing a large percentage of PMMA. After about 3 h at 100 °C with intermediate cooling down several times to allow measurements the surface of the films containing PMMA had become rough which could have influenced the optical properties.

29. The local field factor (F = 3.2) was determined from refractive index measurements (n = 1.55) on the film. Because of the low dispersion of the material the refractive indices between 1064 and 532 nm are approximately equal.

33. For the poorly oriented films the relationship d31= (1/3)d33holds as was reported earlier [5b]. For completely aligned films the d31is expected to be negligibly small and for our films prepared under optimum conditions we measured d31 ⩽. 0.1 d33.
