Abstract
The development of suitable recording media for applications
such as holographic optical elements and holographic data storage are of
significant research and commercial interest. In this paper, a photopolymer
material developed by Bayer MaterialScience is examined using various
optical techniques and then characterised using the Non-local Photopolymerization
Driven Diffusion model. This material demonstrates the
capabilities of a new class of photopolymer offering high index modulation,
full colour recording, high light sensitivity and environmental stability. One
key result of this study is the material’s high spatial frequency resolution,
indicating a very low non-local effect, thus qualifying it as a very good
storage medium.
