Abstract

In the first part of this study, a 3D nonlocal photopolymerization driven diffusion model was developed and applied to simulate the absorption and polymerization taking place during holographic exposures of a multi-layer. The Beer–Lambert law was used to choose appropriate dye concentrations for each layer, with the objective of improving the resulting volume grating uniformity and thus diffraction characteristics. The predictions made, using previously estimated physical parameter values, indicated that improvements in the uniformity of the recorded modulation were possible. In this paper the results of experiments carried out to explore the validity of these predictions are presented. Improvements in material response are demonstrated experimentally, with improved grating diffraction (narrower angular selectivity) being observed for appropriately sensitized multi-layers.
