The microscope is based on phase-shift interferometry (a well-known tool for surface profilometry) that is modified for measuring electrooptic responses. Its feasibility is demonstrated with a two-dimensional map of the electro-optic activity of a periodically poled nonlinear-optical side-chain polymer.enelectro-optical effectslight interferometrynonlinear opticsoptical microscopyoptical polymersoptical rotationphase-shift interference microscopedipole-orientation distributionselectro-optical microscopephase-shift interferometryelectrooptic responsetwo-dimensional mapelectro-optic activityperiodically poled nonlinear-optical side-chain polymer621535journal article
