摘要: This paper reports a systematic investigation on the nonlinear and electro-optic properties of hybrid sol–gel doped with azo-type chromophores. The host is based photosensitive prepared from 3-(methacryloxy)propyl trimethoxysilane-zirconium (or aluminum) oxide (MAPTMS-Zr(Al)) system. chromophores are incorporated into as both guest side-chain. Second harmonic generation experiment conducted to optimize poling parameters for active films. stability second-order optical coefficients investigated by temporal decay test heat-cool cycling at elevated temperature. Electro-optic channel waveguides have been fabricated direct ultra-violet exposure, blue laser writing, reverse-mesa methods. effect measured 1550 nm intensity modulation has demonstrated. All results show that sol–gels promising media devices integrated optics in performance fabrication flexibility.
