Abstract(in English) The optical nonlinearity induced by electrical poling decays gradually in poled polymers. This suggests that the molecular alignment can be easily reoriented in the polymer matrix at room temperature by the external electric field. We investigated the electric field response of the nonlinearity of a dye doped polymer at room temperature. The nonlinear optic dopant molecule is 2-methyl-4-nitroaniline(MNA). The polymer matrix is poly(methyl methacrylate)(PMMA). These characteristics can be used to compensate for a phase mismatch in guided-wave frequency conversion devices. We propose a periodic electrode divided into same segments to compensate for a phase mismatch. A dye doped polymer is poled by using the segments to which the optimum voltage is applied. In experiments, quasi-phase matched second-harmonic generation(QPM-SHG) is observed, and the basic characteristics of this devices are confirmed.
