Abstract

Polydiacetylenes, owing to their unique backbone structure and crystalline organization, can be considered to be the prototype one dimensional systems. We have developed techniques to engineer the diacetylene monomer in a manner that polydiacetylene is grown in the form of a large area-oriented film with controlled thickness and optical qualities. Linear and nonlinear optical properties of these systems have been investigated.
