AB  - A polymeric waveguide material with nonlinear optical properties is studied: 
      crosslinked poly(methyl) methacrylate (PMMA) doped with 
      N,N'-dihexyl-amino-nitrostilbene (DHANS). The fabrication and characterization of 
      thin-film waveguides (2-4 microm) are demonstrated. The anisotropy of the 
      refractive index and the damping of the films have been investigated by m-line 
      spectroscopy and loss measurements. Thin polymeric multilayer structures, 
      including a nonlinear optical core, sandwiched between buffer layers and 
      electrodes have been produced. For these samples, the anisotropy of the 
      refractive index in poled films are measured. Finally, two systems are compared: 
      PMMA/DHANS and a side-chain polymer with the same nonlinear optical group.
