Abstract
Two novel soluble polyarylates with different nonlinear optical chromophores as the side chains were prepared and characterized by UV–visible spectra, nuclear magnetic resonance, and infrared spectroscopy. The titled polymers show us good thermal stability; the thermal decomposition temperature values were 201 and 253 °C, respectively, for polymer sPAR-CTCF and sPAR-CTCP. The glass transition temperatures were 139 and 122 °C for sPAR-CTCF and sPAR-CTCP, respectively. Chromophore FTC-wl was doped in these polymers as a guest chromophore to form binary chromophore electro-optic (EO) system. And super large EO coefficients (124 pm/V) were found from FTC-wl-doped sPAR-CTCP binary chromophore system at high chromophore loading density.
