“…Note that the amount of water adsorbed in room-stored PMMA is typically around 0.6% of the dried material and a lowering of T g by approximately 1 deg per 0.1% of weight increase due to hydration is expected. 51 Moreover, irrespective of the plasticizing influence of the chromophores 36,39,40 to the micro-Brownian motion of the chain segments, the downshift of T R is not expected to exceed 40 K. For example, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) studies in several dye + PMMA blends give ∆T g e (7 K for perylene (R 1 ) R 2 ) H), 39 -17 K for 3-(1,1-dicyanothenyl)-1-phenyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazole, 52 ≈-25 K for N,N-dimethyl-p-nitroaniline, 41 and e-34 K for 4-[ethyl-(2-hydroxyethyl)amino]-4′-nitroazobenzene. 40 In view of the above considerations, the R signal is anticipated outside the investigated temperature range, in line with the spectra shown in Figure 2.…”

“…On the other hand, if we consider the flexibility of the matrix as an inconsequential factor for the optical response of Rh 6G, and by virtue of the observed strong modifications of the β relaxation dynamics in Rh 6G + PMMA, it is reasonable to consider the occurrence of strong dyehost interactions as the origin of the deterioration in the optical response of this blend. Such interactions may produce the strong coupling between the side groups rotation and the rotations of the chromophores [41][42][43] and adversely change optical characteristics of the dye molecule. The strong red shift of the emission optical bands of Rh 6G in PMMA, compared to the bands in matrices of moderate (porous SiO 2 , polycom glass) or high polarity (MeOH, EtOH), is a characteristic example (Figure 14).…”

“…The introduction of the chromophores brings to light a variety of new intermolecular interactions. In a recent report, Brower and Hayden studied the effect of sub- T g relaxations in the reorientation of several types of dye molecules in a series of corona-poled polymer hosts (PMMA, poly(ethyl methacrylate), and poly(isobutyl methacrylate)). Their experiments recorded a decrease in the activation volume for chromophore reorientation with increasing size of the polymer's alkyl side group.…”
