Abstract

The time and power dependence of the optical poling process of an azo chromophore in the PMMA matrix at room temperature is investigated. A model previously proposed is used to account for the writing process of the optical poling of the chromophore/PMMA system. Theoretical predictions of the growth rate and the plateau SHG intensity are found to be in good agreement with the experimental result.
