Abstract
The electrical, photoelectrical and nonlinear optical properties of a new type of soluble graft copolymer of polyacetylene with poly(methyl methacrylate) were studied. The polyacetylene chains in this material are electrically isolated and the conductivity is limited by the transport of carriers through the PMMA barriers. The mobility is influenced by the trap-controlled transport. The electrical conductivity can be increased by iodine doping up to 10-6 S cm-1. The material showed nonlinear optical behavior with a very fast response within hundreds of femtoseconds. The value of the third-order optical susceptibility obtained was χ(3) = 2 × 10-12 e.s.u.
