Abstract

The conformational change in the poly-4-BCMU polydiacetylene was investigated by using nanosecond time-resolution degenerate four wave mixing. Polarization data along with the time response of the signal indicated the signal to be from a thermal grating. The degenerate four wave mixing signal changes dramatically during the rod-to-coil transition and fits a theoretical model of single chain conformational transition.
