Abstract
International audienceIn this paper we present electrooptic measurement of a crosslinked side chain PGMA/DR1 polymer. Measured values are as high as 11 pm/V at 1310 nm, we present measurement as a function of incident beam reflexion point and show dependance between the reflexion point location over the sample and the measured electrooptic coefficient. We present low frequency relative dielectric constant using a capacitance measurement method. Using this method, we found a relative permittivity of 4.46plusmn0.38 for our polymer. We present a new electrooptic microwave sensor, where we enhance the electrooptical interaction by increasing the optical path length using a Fabry-Perot cavity and we concentrate the electric field inside our device using a microstrip resonator. Expected interaction enhancement value is expected to be as high 310deg compared to the simple reflexion case at low frequenc
