Abstrakt: We have observed the piezoelectric and elastooptic effects for the 2-cyclooctylamino-5-nitropyridine complex, chromophore doped by an inter-molecular acceptor -- fullerene C70. The discovered features may be used for optically operated piezoelectric triggers, modulators and deflectors. The observed effects are caused by the effective interaction of external light with the polarizable chromophore. As a pumping laser beam we have used both a nanosecond fundamental 1064 nm laser wavelength as well as its second harmonic generation at 532 nm. A principal role in the observed effects play photoinduced anharmonic phonons, effectively contributing to the output effect. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
