Reversible isomerization is the basis for a variety of applications, such as photo-induced poling, optical data storage and optical grating formation. The irreversible processes that involve the destruction of the chromophores have been found useful for the fabrication of optical waveguides, but they also limit the life times of polymeric photonic devices. In this paper, it is demonstrated that dielectric measurements allow for an in-depth investigation of non-reversible chromophore degradation processes in a typical side-chain polymer. The time- and temperature-dependent dielectric function of the polymer at 1 kHz enables us to follow the chromophore-degradation kinetics and to monitor the bleaching depth as a function of time at room and elevated temperatures Y1 - 2004 ER -
