Abstract

A significant laser-induced piezooptical response in novel CdCl0.5J 0.5 nanolayers is obtained under the influence of laser illumination. The maximal piezo-optic response is observed for off-diagonal piezooptical tensor components. The layered structure allowed to obtain the thin specimens of thickness up to 1 nm with mirror-like surfaces. The observed studies show huge dependence of the piezooptics on the nanolayer thickness and the photoinduced beam power density. The effect is completely reversible. This fact allows proposing a new type of nanomaterials, which have significant benefits with respect to the other types of piezooptical materials (i.e. a possibility to use them in the laser operated devices).
