Abstract: | Summary: The photopolymer recording material based on acrylamide monomer has been experimentally studied. After illumination with an interference field, the photopolymerization process is initiated and a diffraction grating is formed in real-time. The performance of the material depends on its chemical composition and recording parameters. Due to its self-developing characteristics, the real-time measurement of hologram formation is used for detection of the recording process. From the measurement, properties of the material can be determined and optimized for different holographic applications. |
