Poling Induced Mass Transport in Thin Polymer Films
2013
In this study we report investigation of the polymer film morphology modifications during their corona poling for fabrication of nonlinear optically (NLO) active materials. We demonstrate that at certain poling conditions surface and spatial inhomogeneities in the poled area of the sample appear. Densities of the inhomogeinities depend on the strength of the poling field, the sample temperature during the poling, and the prepoling conditions. Optimization of the poling conditions directed toward avoiding surface modifications enables us to increase the overall observable effective nonlinearity of the sample up to 10 times. To investigate, understand, and eventually explain the formation of …
Fluorescence and amplified spontaneous emission of glass forming compounds containing styryl-4H-pyran-4-ylidene fragment
2012
Potential of glassy films of newly synthesised low molecular weight organic molecules for light amplification and lasing applications has been investigated by analysing fluorescence, transient differential absorption and amplified spontaneous emission properties. These non-symmetric and symmetric molecules contain styryl-4H-pyran-4-ylidene fragment with three different electron acceptor groups: dicyanomethylene, barbituric acid, indene-1,3-dione. Fluorescence quantum yields of the investigated compounds in solutions are between 0.32 and 0.54, while they drop down by an order of magnitude in thin solid films. Incorporation of bulky side groups reduced excitonic interactions enabling manifest…
Fluorescence quenching by trapped charge carriers in N,N-dimethylaminobenzylidene 1,3-indandione films
2010
Effects caused by the applied voltage on the steady state and time-resolved fluorescence of vacuum evaporated N,N-dimethylaminobenzylidene 1,3-indandione films sandwiched between gold and aluminium electrodes were investigated and discussed. Fluorescence enhancement and quenching as well as the fluorescence band narrowing depending on the applied voltage have been observed. Fluorescence decay and recovery take place on a time scale of tens of seconds after voltage is switched on and off. Similar fluorescence decay also takes place after switching on the excitation light. These fluorescence changes are attributed to the exciton quenching by trapped charge carriers.
