Abstract:The purpose of this work is to investigate the microstructure of blended materials using non-invasive, optical imaging modality. Multiphoton autofluorescence and second harmonic generation signals will be used for characterizing and quantifying individual non-linear optical properties of each polymer in pure polymeric thin films. In addition, reflected confocal signals will used to outline the interface of refractive index mismatch. And the phase separation phenomenon of immiscible blended membranes composed o… Show more
