摘要:
Chiral organic polymers doped with or appended by nonlinear optical dyes are disclosed. The use of chiral polymers produces a more stable noncentrosymmetric environment for the dye molecules resulting in unexpectedly long relaxation times as compared with previously used organic polymers. In addition, the NLO/chiral polymer materials exhibit high electro-optical coefficients (r33), high nonlinear optical coefficients (d33), improved long-term thermal stability, and at the same time retain the processing advantages associated with organic polymers. Thus, the present NLO/chiral polymer materials are extremely well-suited for use in second-order nonlinear optical and optoelectronics devices.

Optically active poly(aryl)ether polymers prepared from monomers containing optically pure spirobiindane and/or indane moieties are disclosed. The chiral poly(aryl)ether polymers are of high molecular weight and exhibit high optical rotations. In addition, the polyethers are thermally stable at high temperatures and exhibit excellent hydrolytic resistance making them useful in high temperature processing applications, in the fabrication of optoelectronics devices, and as polarizing coatings and filters.

摘要:
Linear polycarbonate polymers are disclosed which contain spirobiindanol derivatives regularly alternating in the polymeric chain with derivatives of dihydroxyaromatic compounds, such as biphenols and bisphenols. These clear spirobiindane-dihydroxyaromatic polycarbonates exhibit high glass transition temperatures and exhibit good mechanical and optical properties. In addition, the alternating polycarbonates are thermally stable and remain ductile even at temperatures greater than 150° C. The polycarbonates are therefore useful in high temperature processing and optical applications. The disclosed polycarbonates exhibit indices of refraction that differ sufficiently from those of randomly distributed SBI/BPA polycarbonates to make them useful in the manufacture of optical waveguides.
摘要:
Cyclic polycarbonate oligomers are converted to linear polycarbonates by the catalytic action of a zwitterionic compound containing positively charged nitrogen and negatively charged oxygen. The polymerization reaction is slow, and therefore particularly useful in such operations as resin transfer molding.

摘要:
Cyclic polycarbonate (or thiol analog) oligomer mixtures are prepared by the reaction of bishaloformates or their thio analogs, or mixtures thereof with dihydroxy or dimercapto compounds, with alkali metal hydroxides and various amines. The oligomer mixtures may be converted to polycarbonates or their thiol analogs by a method which is particularly adaptable to integration with polycarbonate processing operations. Polymerization may be conducted simultaneously with molding, extrusion and the like. The oligomer mixtures are adaptable to the preparation of filled prepregs.
摘要:
An apparatus, system, and method are provided for sharing a cached security profile in a database environment. The apparatus, system, and method include a cache module for caching a security profile accessible to primary tasks and secondary tasks. An identification module is provided that distinguishes between primary tasks authorized to refresh the security profile and secondary tasks. A refresh module cooperates with the cache module and identification module to selectively refresh the security profile in response to a refresh request and expiration of the security profile such that an old version of the security profile is retained for use by secondary tasks until an execution window closes.
摘要:
Apparatus for the generation of high energy terahertz radiation is presented and comprises laser means effective to produce subpicosecond optical pulses and a mosaic comprising a plurality of planar electro-optic crystals fastened together edge to edge in the form of a grid. The electro-optic crystals are in optical communication with the subpicosecond optical pulses, and behave as a single large electro-optic crystal, producing high energy terahertz radiation by way of optical rectification.
