Abstract

We have established a principal role of the polarity of polymer matrices on the piezooptical dispersion of the γ-glycine nanocrystallites embedded into the polymethymethacrylate (PMMA) and polycarbonate (PC) matrices. We found that the optical treatment by bicolor two laser beams at 1064 nm and 532 nm which are originating from the same 10 ns Nd:YAG laser, causes occurrence of the piezooptical effects. The optimal content of the γ-glycine nanocrystallites with respect to the magnitude of piezooptical coefficients was within the range of size 50–80 nm, corresponding to the 6.5 wt.%. We studied relaxation and spectral dependence of the corresponding coefficients of the piezooptic tensor.
