Introducing Optical Nonlinearity in PDMS Using Organic Solvent Swelling

Introducing Optical Nonlinearity in PDMS Using Organic Solvent Swelling

The feasibility of introducing optical nonlinearity in poly-dimethyl siloxane (PDMS) using organic solvent swelling was investigated. The third-order nonlinear refraction and absorption properties of the individual materials, as well as the PDMS/solvent compounds after swelling were characterized. T...
