Applicability of a binary amplitude mask for creating correctors of higher-order ocular aberrations in a photoresistive layer
2012
Ocular aberrations can be corrected with wavefront correctors created in a photoresist layer. The simplest type of the mask used in optical lithography is a binary amplitude mask. It is known that such a mask has a periodic hole pattern. The purpose of this research was to assess applicability of a binary amplitude mask for creating ocular wavefront correctors. The photoresist was applied to the substrate by using the dip-coating method. The photoresist layer was illuminated through a mask printed on a transparent film by using a laser printer. The surface of the wavefront correctors was evaluated by aberrometry, scanning electron microscopy and profilometry method. The dip-coating method c…
Stability of the functional NLO polymers–optically induced depoling of the DMABI molecules in sPMMA matrix
2008
Abstract Low polar order (PO) stability is the major problem of the polymer materials for nonlinear optical (NLO) applications. In this contribution we will show the results of PO stability investigations in the corona poled 3 wt.% DMABI + sPMMA guest–host system. Influence of the poling temperature on the building and stability of the polar order in the system will be presented. To characterize the stability, PO destruction has been caused by high intensity light. Polar order stability characteristics were obtained from the sample second harmonic generation intensity (SHI) time decays. We have found that the decay signal is the best fit to the sum of two exponentials. Several physical mode…
Effect of Corona Poling and Thermo Cycling Sequence on NLO Properties of The Guest-Host System
2008
In the case of doped polymer system SHG efficiency is proportional to the concentration and orientation degree of NLO-active molecules. Unfortunately, corona poling realised at elevated temperatures causes concentration decrease of NLO-active molecules due to crystallization. On the basis of our studies of the film optical images, refractive index and SHG measurements of the dimethylaminobenzylidene 1,3-indandione and PMMA guest-host system, we have demonstrated that optical quality is improved and second order NLO efficiency is higher, when the external poling electric field is switched on from the very beginning of the sample heating process.
Influence of corona poling procedures on linear and non-linear optical properties of polymer materials containing indandione derivatives as a cromoph…

SHG efficiency of the poled guest - host polymer system is proportional to the concentration and orientation degree of NLO active molecules (chromophores). Corona poling realized at elevated temperatures could cause concentration decrease of NLO- active molecules due to centrosymmetric crystallization. Our studies showed that number density of crystallites is depending on orientation procedure. To obtain the best orientation procedure for guest - host systems containing four different chromophores based on dimethylaminobenzylidene 1, 3 - indandione we have compared optical images and SHG efficiency of corona poled films. According to our observations external poling electric field applied f…
