“…The interaction between the electric field component ( E ) of the incident electromagnetic waves and the polarization ( P ) is given as:

P goodbreak= χ^{(1)} E goodbreak+ χ^{(2)} E^{2} goodbreak+ χ^{(3)} E^{3},

where χ (1) , χ (2) , and χ (3) are linear first‐order susceptibility, nonlinear second‐order and third‐order susceptibility. χ (2) vanishes for centrosymmetric materials as composites, glasses and chalcogenides 42 . χ (1) , χ (3) , and nonlinear refractive index ( n 2 ) could be calculated as 39,43 :

χ^{(1)} goodbreak= \frac{n^{2} - 1}{4 π},

χ^{(3)} goodbreak= 1.7 goodbreak\times 10^{- 10} {(χ^{(1)})}^{4},

“…22 Another important issue of the current study is to explore the role of ACS on PVP/PVA nonlinear optical (NLO) behavior. NLO performance for such an optical material pronounces when the intensity electromagnetic waves affects its optical properties, specially refractive index n. 42 To examine this effect, ultra-fast optical switches or pulses illumination of lasers is applied. 42,62 As a result of this illumination type, NLO behavior related to the susceptibility and refractive index could be detected.…”

Due to the novel physicochemical properties of polymeric nanocomposites (PNCs), a remarkable role of PNCs has been accomplished in plenty of flexible optoelectronic applications. Solution cast procedure has been performed to prepare different contents (0.1, 0.5, 1.0, 5.0, and 10 wt%) of Ag1.6Cu0.2S (ACS) incorporated in PVP/PVA blend. Fourier transforms infrared and scanning electron microscope measurements were carried out to investigate the influence of ACS on PVP/PVA structure and morphology. UV–visible spectrophotometry technique was applied to examine PVP/PVA optical properties modifications. Spectroscopic analysis reveals that direct/indirect optical bandgap of PVP/PVA host shrinks from 5.21/4.95 eV (PVP/PVA0) to 4.87/4.54 eV (PVP/PVA10). Moreover, obvious enrichments in the whole linear/nonlinear optical parameters are achieved by ACS doping. For example, refractive index and dielectric constants of PVP/PVA are increased from 1.69 and 2.87 to 1.91 and 3.63 (PVP/PVA10). While two orders of magnetite enhancement in nonlinear third‐order susceptibility are achieved via 10% ACS doping. The electrical performance of ACS PNCs has been explored, which discloses remarkable enrichments in PVP/PVA DC‐electrical conductivity () and activation energy. The obtained structural, spectroscopic and electrical investigations prove that ACS PNCs could play an efficient role in plenty of optoelectronic applications.Highlights Solution casting was used to prepare PVP/PVA loaded with Ag/CuS (ACS) NPs. FT‐IR analysis reveals successful incorporation of ACS in PVP/PVA structure. Enrichments in linear/nonlinear optical parameters are achieved by ACS doping. Electrical performance of ACS PNCs has greatly been enhanced. ACS PNCs could play an efficient role in plenty of optoelectronic applications.
