Abstract
We report on efficient and fast hybrid photorefractive polymer sensitized with cadmium selenide (CdSe) quantum dots. The surface of the quantum dots was treated with 4-methylbenzenethiol. This surfactant is responsible for efficient photoinduced charge generation in the composite, leading to fast grating build-up times of 100 ms and below. Overmodulation of the diffraction efficiency was observed at an applied field of 60 V∕μm.
