AbstractChromophores capable of undergoing conformational changes when exposed to ultraviolet or visible light have been synthesized with functional groups permitting attachment to polymer matrices. One class of such chromophores, containing reactive functionalities at both ends of the chromophore, are referred to as double-end crosslinkable (DEC) chromophores. These chromophores are used in the synthesis of hardened nonlinear optically active lattices and in the fabrication of buried channel nonlinear optical waveguides by photoprocessing; development of such waveguides represents a critical step in the production of polymeric electro-optic modulators. Such chromophores are also crucial to the phenomena of laser-assisted poling (also known as photochemically-induced poling). Finally, these chromophores are attached to the surface of polystyrene beads permitting the realization of room temperature spectral hole burning exploiting morphology-dependent resonances. Such resonances provide the basis of wavelength coding for the development of high density optical memories.

Matrix Eigenvalue Problems

A numerical technique is described that can efficiently compute solutions of interface problems. These are problems with data, such as the coefficients of differential equations, discontinuous or even singular across one or more interfaces. A prime example of these problems are optical waveguides, and as such the scheme is applied to Maxwell's equations as they are formulated to describe light confinement in Bragg fibers. It is based on standard finite differences appropriately modified to take into account all possible discontinuities across the waveguide's interfaces due to the change of the refractive index. Second- and fourth-order schemes are described with additional adaptations to handle matrix eigenvalue problems, demanding geometries and defects.
