Quadratic electro-optic Kerr effect as a tool for polymer blends characterization
A new method for the characterization of the kinetics of rotational mobility of chromophores embedded in a polymer matrix is proposed. The method is applied and checked with two different systems consisting of a solid solution of Disperse Red 1 chromophore (DR1) either in PMMA or in bisphenol A thermally reticulating resine.
