M. A1 - Pietsch, Ullrich A1 - Rochon, Paul T1 - Nonlinear effects during inscription of azobenzene surface relief gratings N2 - Surface relief gratings were inscribed on azobenzene polymer films using a pulselike exposure of an Ar+ laser. The inscription process was initiated by a sequence of short pulses followed by much longer relaxation pauses. The development of the surface relief grating was probed by a He-Ne laser measuring the scattering intensity of the first- order grating peak. The growth time of the surface relief grating was found to be larger than the length of the pulses used. This unusual behavior can be considered as a nonlinear material response associated with the trans-cis isomerization of azobenzene moieties. In this study the polymer stress was assumed to be proportional to the number of cis-isomers. One-dimensional viscoelastic analysis was used to derive the polymer deformation. The rate of trans-cis isomerization increases with the intensity of the inscribing light; in the dark it is equal to the rate of thermal cis- trans isomerization. The respective relaxation times were estimated by fitting theoretical deformation curves to experimental data Y1 - 2004 SN - 1520-6106 ER - TY - JOUR A1 - Henneberg, Oliver A1 - Geue, Thomas A1 - Pietsch, Ullrich A1 - Winter, Bernd T1 - Investigation of azobenzene side group orientation in polymer surface relief gratings by means of photoelectron spectroscopy N2 - The molecular orientation of azobenzene side groups in polymer films before (nonpatterned) and after (patterned) development of a surface relief grating has been investigated by photoelectron spectroscopy using synchrotron radiation. The photoemission spectra obtained for 60-100 eV photons of a patterned and a nonpatterned surface are similar when the polarization vector of the synchrotron light is parallel to the grating vector. However, for perpendicular excitation, considerable spectral intensity differences can be observed for 9-14 eV electron binding energy. The observed changes are attributed to the formation of well-oriented azobenzenes at the surface.

Um die Dynamik der Gitterentstehung zu verfolgen, wurde am Speicherring für Synchrotronstrahlung ein Gitterschreibaufbau errichtet. Damit konnte erstmals in dieser Arbeit die Gitterbildungsgeschwindigkeit in-situ simultan mit Röntgen- und Lichtstreuung untersucht werden. Mit Hilfe einer speziellen Anpassung der Röntgenstreutheorie konnten sehr gute Übereinstimmungen von theoretischen Berechnungen mit den Messergebnissen erzielt werden. Dabei konnte nachgewiesen werden, dass sich zeitgleich mit einem Oberflächengitter auch ein Dichtegitter entwickelt. Durch die Trennung beider Streuanteile ließ sich die Dynamik der Strukturentstehungen bestimmen. Des weiteren konnte erstmals mit Hilfe der Photoelektronenspektroskopie die molekulare Orientierung an der Oberfläche eines Oberflächengitters nachgewiesen werden. Die Bewegungsursache kann auf einen Impulsübertrag während der Isomerisierung zurückgeführt werden, während die Bewegungsrichtung durch den elektrischen Feldvektor festgelegt wird. Die Theorie der Gitterentstehung konnte verbessert werden. N2 - Solid azobenzene containing polymers show a macroscopic material transport under illumination with blue light. A writing setup was constructed at a synchrotron beamline in order to investigate the dynamics of the grating formation. With this setup it was possible to record the grating velocity for the first time simultaneously with x-ray and laser light scattering. A very good consistency could be achieved between the experiments and a suitable accomodation of the x-ray scattering theory. The theory reveals, that a density grating develops simultaneously with a surface grating. By separation of both parts the dynamics was determined for the density and the surface grating. The molecular ordering was determined at the surface with photoelectron spectroscopy. A momentum transfer could be identified as the source of the movement while the electric field defines the direction of the movement. The theory of the grating formation was improved.

T1 - Simultaneous X-ray and visible light diffraction for the investigation of surface relief and density grating formation in azobenzene containing polymer films N2 - The development of surface relief and density patterns in azobenzene polymer films was studied by diffraction at two different wavelengths. We used x-ray diffraction of synchrotron radiation at 0.124 nm in combination with visible light diffraction at a wavelength of 633 nm. In contrast to visible light scattering x-ray diffraction allows the separation of a surface relief and a density grating contribution due to the different functional dependence of the scattering power. Additionally, the x-ray probe is most sensitive for the onset of the surface grating formation Y1 - 2006 UR - http://www.informaworld.com/smpp/title~content=t713644168~db=all U6 - https://doi.org/10.1080/15421400500383345 SN - 1542-1406 ER - TY - JOUR A1 - Henneberg, Oliver A1 - Geue, Thomas A1 - Saphiannikova, Marina A1 - Pietsch, Ullrich A1 - Rochon, Paul A1 - Natansohn, Almeria T1 - Formation and dynamics of polymer surface relief gratings Y1 - 2001 SN - 0378-5963 ER -
