Sensor for monitoring the vibration of a laser beam based on holographic polymer dispersed liquid crystal films

Abstract: A continuous multiple exposure diffraction grating (CMEDG) is fabricated holographically on polymer dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC) films using two-beam interference with multiple exposures. The grating is fabricated by exposing a PDLC film to 18 repeated exposure/non-exposure cycles with an angular step of ~10°/10° while it revolves a circle on a rotation stage. The structure of the sample thus formed is analyzed using a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and shows arc-ripples around the center. From the diff… Show more

“…Moreover the velocity of surface changes and the diffusion of the monomer inside the layer can be fitted too using the method described in [1,2]. The many applications of such free-radical photopolymer materials [8][9][10][11][12] make the analysis of the diffusion process very interesting.…”

“…As a new type of electrooptical material, holographic polymer-dispersed liquid crystal (H-PDLC) has many potential applications in optical communications, flat panel displays, information storage, and integrated optics [7][8][9][10][11][12][13]. A number of practical and effective instruments have been fabricated based on the unique characteristics of H-PDLCs such as optical attenuator, holographic zoom lens, and holographic volume gratings [14][15][16][17][18][19][20]. Two coherent recording beams create a sinusoidal interference optical pattern, which leads to periodic phase separation between prepolymer monomers and liquid crystal (LC).…”

“…Therefore, the grating develops a dynamic behavior that may be modified by means of an electronic device. In this manner, it is possible to make dynamic devices such as tunable-focus lenses, sensors, phase modulators or prism gratings [1][2][3][4][5][6][7].…”
