    Notes: Director tilting of liquid crystal (LC) molecules on photosensitive alignment layers has been investigated. The layers, polyimides with photoisomerizable groups in their main chains, were irradiated with unpolarized near-UV (UPUV) light at oblique incidence. The irradiated film was found to align LC molecules homogeneously with a negligible pretilt angle. It was found that the pretilt angle can be generated successfully by introducing surfactant lecithin and decreasing the incidence angle of the UPUV light. The LC alignment and electro-optical properties of the LC cells with the photoalignment layers were demonstrated to be suitable for twisted nematic LC, vertical alignment LC, and surface-stabilized ferroelectric LC devices. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Abstract The second-harmonic generation (SHG) has been measured for studying the molecular ordering and its relaxation process in poled states of two different nonlinear optical (NLO) polymer composites.p-Nitroaniline (pNA) and the azo dye Disperse Orange 3 (DO3) are uniformly dispersed in photopolymer matrices followed by poling. Two different composites made-up of 1 wt% of pNA and 2.5 wt% of DO3 are poled at 200 MV m-1 and 80 MV m-1, respectively. One of the second-order NLO coefficients,d 33, was found to be 0.27 pm V-1 for the pNA-doped film and 0.20 pm V-1 for the DO3-doped film. While for the latter the ratiod 33/d 33 (∼3.1) is consistent with the value of 3 in the low-field approximation, for the former the value of 3.5 indicates that higher-order effects of the poling field play a significant role in the NLO process. It is suggested that the SHG relaxation dynamics is also closely related to the UV absorption of the NLO molecules in a photopolymer matrix.

    Notes: Abstract Second-harmonic generation (SHG) has been studied for understanding the enhancement mechanism for the second-order optical nonlinearity by the nematic (or axial) ordering in a liquid crystal doped with one-dimensional nonlinear optical (NLO) organic molecules. An extended version of the Maier-Saupe mean-field theory for nematic liquid crystals was developed to obtain analytical expressions for the second-order NLO coefficients in terms of the axial order, the polar order and the effective nematic potential. From the SHG data in a guest-host system composed ofN,N'-dimethylaminonitrostilbene molecules (0.5% by weight) and a liquid crystal, the enhancement of the second-order NLO coefficient,d 33, by nematic ordering becomes almost 3, which agrees well with our theoretical predictions.
