Abstract

Photoinduced changes in the refractive index of a conjugate polyimide (PI) matrix sensitized by shungite carbon nanoparticles have been studied for the first time. The results are compared to the data of previous investigations of the photorefractive properties of PI matrices doped with fullerenes, carbon nanotubes, and quantum dots. The nonlinear refractive index of the proposed material has been determined using the dynamic holography techniques. The position of conjugate polymer materials of this type among the other nonlinear optical systems is considered.
