Abstract

The photorefractive properties of photoconducting polymers doped with nonlinear azo dyes are investigated by means of polarization and field-dependent four-wave mixing experiments. The nonlocal response of the photorefractive effect is shown by two-beam coupling experiments. High diffraction efficiencies (>5%) and net coupling gain (6 cm^-1) are demonstrated at low power with a semiconductor laser diode in 105 μm films. Under some conditions, gratings due to photoisomerization of the azo dye molecules are also present and their properties are discussed.
