Recording Polarization Holograms in Films of 4-((2-Bromo-4-nitrophenyl)diazenyl)phenyl Methacrylate Copolymers

Resumo

Recording media for polarization holography have been created on the basis of 4-((2-bromo-4-nitrophenyl)diazenyl)phenyl methacrylate copolymers, and the properties during that they manifest during recording of holograms of a plane wavefront have been studied. It has been found that the hologram recording rate at room temperature is the same for the perpendicular and parallel polarization of recording rays and the hologram relaxation rate is higher in the case of perpendicular polarization orientation of recording rays. It has been shown that the diffraction efficiency of holograms does not exhibit a monotonic relation with the film softening temperature.
