Simulation and experimental analysis of multiplexed hologram recording using photopolymer media

Abstract

In order to clarify the hologram recording process for the photopolymer media, we analyzed both the creation process of multiplexed hologram and diffraction characteristics of reproduction process using a Beam Propagation Method (BPM). We also conducted experiment and evaluated the multiplexed hologram recording characteristics. By the simulation using BPM and experimental results of hologram multiplexed recording, we made clear the evaluation process of photopolymer media and recording / reproduction conditions of multiplexed holograms recording.
