Polymers as Electrooptical and Photooptical Active Media de Valery Shibaev

Polymers as Electrooptical and Photooptical Active Media: Macromolecular Systems - Materials Approach

Valery Shibaev

Polymeric materials have special advantages over other materials used for the recording, storage and retrieval of information, telecommunication transmission and visualization of images. The authors describe the synthesis, the physico-chemical behavior and the applications of these highly sensitive macromolecular systems. They discuss the most essential developments in this field.
For scientists and professionals working in the field of electrooptical and photooptical polymeric materials.
