Abstract

Polymeric glasses have been investigated as a means of incorporating organic molecules into optical waveguides for non-linear optical applications. Polycarbonate thin films, loaded with up to 65% of the organic electo-optical material MBA-NP gave waveguide propagation losses below 3 dB/cm. The nonlinear properties of these films have been investigated.
