Polymers for holographic recording: VI. Some basic ideas for modelling the kinetics of the recording process

3 Dimensional analysis of holographic photopolymers based memories

“…To understand the effects of these factors numerous models have been purposed [8][9][10][11][12][13].…”

“…The differential equations provide a semi-analytical way of explaining why the index modulation is smaller when the separation between strips increases, that is to say, when low space frequencies are registered. Following a lot of new models were presented, taking into account different aspects of the formation hologram process [9][10][11][12][13][15][16][17]. All of these models assume a sinusoidal exposure along the x axis is:…”

3-dimensional analysis of holographic memories based on photopolymers using finite differences method

“…In the second part of the simulation the importance of monomer [26]. This value represents the separation between viscous systems and liquid systems [12]. Viscous systems are characterized by the large values of the higher harmonics in the recorded grating.…”

“…Therefore, characterization of the behavior of photopolymers is important in order to control the holographic memories based on these compounds. In recent years many 2-dimensional models have been proposed for the analysis of photopolymers [10][11][12][13][14][15][16]. Many parameters have been introduced to theoretically control the photopolymer behavior.…”

“…The differential equations provide a semi-analytical way of explaining why the index modulation is smaller when the separation between strips increases, that is to say, when low space frequencies are recorded. Subsequently, a lot of new models were presented, taking into account different aspects of the hologram formation process [12][13][14][15][16]. Some of the most interesting novelties were introduced by Sheridan and co-workers, specifically, introduction of the non-local polymerization concept and the high spatial frequency cut-off [14].…”
