Abstract

Photorefractive active block copolymers were successfully synthesized via an atom transfer radical polymerization of acrylate containing liquid crystalline moiety and hole transporting carbazole moiety. Resulting copolymers were characterized by gel permeation chromatography, NMR, and DSC. Copolymers afforded the transparent films showing birefringent nature. Photorefractive characteristics of copolymers with 2 wt% of trinitro- fluorenone as a photosensitizer were investigated by four wave mixing and two-beam coupling methods with a He-Ne laser. For the block copolymer, higher diffraction efficiency and larger coupling gain were observed compared with the corresponding statistical random copolymer.
