In the first of this series of papers [J. Opt. Soc. Am. B 26, 1736 (2009)], a new kinetic model, which includes most of the major photochemical and nonlocal photopolymerization driven diffusion effects, was proposed. ...
The kinetics of photosensitive polymer holographic recording materials are examined assuming a material that exhibits nonideal kinetic behavior. Previously, a linear relationship between monomer concentration and polymerization ...
We describe holographic grating formation in Acrylamide-based photopolymer material using the NonLocal Diffusion Driven model & discuss radical suppression leading to an inhibition period before grating growth. Diffusion ...
We present an analytical model of the dynamics of spatial harmonics of holographic grating profiles, taking into consideration record mechanisms (polymerization and components diffusion), absorption, interference pattern ...
The nonlocal diffusion model proposed by Sheridan and coworkers has provided a useful interpretation of the nature of grating
formation inside photopolymer materials. This model accounts for some important experimental ...
For the first time to our knowledge, a detailed theoretical basis is provided for the well-known inverse-square scaling law of holographic diffraction, which states that replay diffraction efficiency η=Γ/M2, where M is the ...
The one-dimensional diffusion equation governing holographic grating formation in photopolymers, which includes both nonlocal material response and generalized dependence of the rate of polymerization on the illuminating ...
Diffusion-based models of grating formation in photopolymers have been proposed in which the rate of monomer polymerization (removal) is directly proportional to the illuminating intensity inside the medium. However, based ...
In recent years the interest in thick holographic recording materials for storage applications has increased. In particular,
photopolymers are interesting materials for obtaining inexpensive thick dry layers with low noise ...
The choice of an exposure schedule that maximizes the uniformity and capacity of a holographic recording medium is of critical importance in ensuring the optimum performance of any potential holographic data storage scheme. ...
