Abstract

Laser-induced processes in the IR spectral range, which are related to manifestations of the optical limiting in composite systems containing fullerenes and carbon nanotubes (CNTs), have been studied. Organic materials based on polyimides (PIs), 2-cyclooctylamine-5-nitropyridine (COANP), polyanilines, and dispersed liquid crystal (LC) structures were used as nanoparticle-sensitized matrices. Manifestations of optical limiting in the IR range at 1047, 1080, 1315, and 2940 nm are demonstrated and the position of composites studied among other systems used for optical limiting in the IR range is determined. The optical limiting at 1080 nm in CNT-containing solutions and LC cells was studied and the levels of limiting in thin-film PI-based nanocomposites with CNTs are established. A microscopic examination of thin PI films with CNTs revealed the structure of quasi-photonic crystals formed in these systems.
