Effect of Photo-response Nonlinearity on the Diffraction Efficiency of Holograms

详细

The effect of the photo-response nonlinearity of a holographic material on the achievable diffraction efficiency of holograms has been studied. It has been shown that the interaction between the hologram form factor and the photo-response nonlinearity leads to an increase in diffraction efficiency compared to a linear photo-response. Numerical calculations for the photo-response nonlinearity corresponding to Reoxan phase holographic material are presented.
