Photoimaging through in-Situ Photopolymerization of Heterobifunctional Mesogenic Compounds in Liquid Crystalline State
2007
A series of heterobifunctional mesogenic biphenyl esters having two different polymerizable groups, i.e., acryl and diacetylene groups, were synthesized and their thermal behaviors and polymerization investigated. All compounds showed enantiotropic transitions. Under POM, highly birefringent focal-conic fan textures appeared on heating and cooling from the isotropic melt. Compounds 6−8 having a butyl spacer between a biphenyl and a diacetylene group exhibited LC phases even at room temperature. The X-ray diffractograms of compounds 6−8 showed a set of reflections in the small-angle region. They consisted of more than three sharp diffraction peaks with d spacings in the ratio of 1:1/2:1/3, s…

Nonlinear optical spectra of conjugated polymers: Effect of long-range coulomb interactions
1993
Abstract Nonlinear optical spectra of conjugated polymers are theoretically studied in the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model supplemented by long-range Coulomb interactions. Excitonic correlation for electron-hole excitations in explicitly taken into account by a standard method. Nonlinear susceptibilities χ (3) are calculated numerically with a standard sum-over-states method for finite chains (up to 1000 sites). Using moderate interaction strength, our calculations can reproduce many distinct features observed in the linear and nonlinear spectra (two-photon absorption, third-harmonic generation, and electroabsorption) of polydiacetylenes and some other polymers. Especially, a hump in the spectru…

Diacetylene polymerization on a bulk insulator surface
2017
| openaire: EC/FP7/610446/EU//PAMS Molecular electronics has great potential to surpass known limitations in conventional silicon-based technologies. The development of molecular electronics devices requires reliable strategies for connecting functional molecules by wire-like structures. To this end, diacetylene polymerization has been discussed as a very promising approach for contacting single molecules with a conductive polymer chain. A major challenge for future device fabrication is transferring this method to bulk insulator surfaces, which are mandatory to decouple the electronic structure of the functional molecules from the support surface. Here, we provide experimental evidence for…
Compound Membranes of Linearly Polymerized and Cross-Linked Macrolipids with Phospholipids: Preparation, Microstructure and Applications
1985
Methods for the assembly and for studying the structural and dynamic properties of partially polymerized membranes are described. Mixtures of two classes of polymerizable amphiphiles with diacyl phosphatidylcholines are studied: (1) phosphatidylcholines carrying a diacetylene group per chain (abbreviated as (m,n)-DIINPC (where m + n + 6 equals number of C-Atoms per chain) and (2) a phospholipid-like molecule with a polymerizable methacryl ligand connected to the phosphate head group via (CH2CH2O)m spacers which is abbreviated as (m.n)-POMECY (n = number of C-atoms per chain). — Phase diagrams of the lipid mixtures are established by static light scattering in combination with freeze fractur…
Material transport and organizing phenomena of Langmuir—Blodgett membranes from polymerizable built up diacetylene amphiphiles on hydrophobic supports
1986
Abstract Langmuir—Blodgett multilayers of polymerized diin amphiphiles on different porous, hydrophobic ultrafilters have been studied as composite membranes under the conditions of reverse osmosis. Influences of differently structured surfaces of the supports on structure and phase change occurring during polymerization have been investigated by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction and are discussed with reverse osmosis data. When conditioned, fine porous hydrophobic supports become permeable to aqueous solutions at low pressures. Under these conditions permeate flux and retention were found to depend on the number of layers deposited.
