Abstract
Low polar order (PO) stability is the major problem of the polymer materials for nonlinear optical (NLO) applications. In this contribution we will show the results of PO stability investigations in the corona poled 3 wt.% DMABI + sPMMA guest-host system. Influence of the poling temperature on the building and stability of the polar order in the system will be presented. To characterize the stability, PO destruction has been caused by high intensity light. Polar order stability characteristics were obtained from the sample second harmonic generation intensity (SHI) time decays. We have found that the decay signal is the best fit to the sum of two exponentials. Several physical models have been tested to explain kinetics and dynamics of the disorientation process.
