In this paper we present the theoretical analysis and experimental results of a holographic collimator made in silver halide sensitized gelatin. Diffraction efficiency up to 70% over the whole plate and wave aberration as low as 20-lambda in the maximum…

The photopolymerization diffusion models give accurate comprehension of the mechanism of hologram formation inside photopolymer materials. Although several models have been proposed, these models share the common assumption that there is an interplay between the processes of monomer polymerization and…
