摘要：

Polydiacetylene derivative of 2-methyl-4-nitroaniline (PDAMNA) shows a picosecond switching property, which illustrated a partial all-optical picosecond NAND logic gate. The switching phenomenon was demonstrated by waveguiding two collinear beams at 633 nm and 532 run through a hollow fiber of 50 mum diameter, coated from inside with a thin film of PDAMNA. A Z-scan investigations of a PDAMNA thin film on quartz substrate revealed that the switching effect was attributed to an excited state absorption in the systems. The studies also showed that the polymer suffers a photo-oxidation beyond an intensity level of 2.9x10(6) w/cm(2). The photo-oxidized film has different physical properties that are different from the original film before oxidation. The life time of both excited states before and after oxidation as well as their absorption coefficients were estimated by fitting a three level system model to the experimental results.
