Ultra-Thin Films for Opto-Electronic Applications

Abstract

Optically active poly(thiophene) with a high stere regularity was synthesized for the first time by using a Rieke zerovalent zinc catalyst. An optically active polymer having more than 93% of Head-Tail linkages was obtained from 3(2(S)-2-methylbutoxy)ethyl)thiophene. Electrical and optical properties of the Head-to-Tail polymer were much superior to those of random-type polymer derived from the same--monomer and the third order non-linearity k3 reached a high value of 10(exp -7) esu.
