Abstract :
This talk focuses on the development and characterization of new high gain photorefractive polymers, with emphasis on a particular stable composite composed of the photoconductor poly(n-vinyl carbazole), PVK, the charge generator C60, the nonlinear optical chromophore 4-piperidino-benzylidene-malononitrile (PDCST), and the liquid plasticizer butyl benzyl phthalate, BBP
