By using the video microscopy, the picture of the formation of anisotropy photoinduction in the form of grains in time is shown, when anisotropy in the film is induced in individual micrograins and the concentration and sizes of the grains are modulated depending on the light exposition. This phenomenon was observed in the gelatin film dyed with the mixture prepared with the saturated solutions of Chrysophenine and Acridine Yellow mixed with 1 : 1 proportion.
The work is dedicated to a study of anisotropy photoinduction during the light-stimulated molecular aggregations in organic compounds. The case of gelatin or polyvinyl films saturated by azo dyes is considered. By using the video and spectral techniques, the time-formation picture of optical image is studied. It is shown that in this case the image is formed in a similar way as in silver emulsions in the process of photographing-"with the grain distribution".
We report the linear polarized light-induced anisotropic grains in azo-dye-colored gelatin films. The optical axes of the grains (fast or slow) are directed along the polarization vector of the exciting light.
In the course of slow evaporation of an azo-dye chrysophenine-saturated gelatin-water solution, dye crystals that developed two different interference colors were observed in the gelatin; the colors were yellow and blue. The crystals that produce a blue interference color undergo disintegration on exposure to non-polarized light from a mercury lamp.
