The results of optical phase conjugation experiments in a degenerate four-wave mixing geometry are reported at 532 nm in a new block copolymer of phenylacetylene and norbornene. The copolymer sample with an equal number of repeating units for the two homopolymers prepared by sequential addition of the monomers gives a third-order susceptibility value which is twice that of the homopolymer of phenylacetylene. © 1995.
