▪ Abstract Rapid advances in the field of photorefractive polymers and composites have in
the brief time since their inception in 1991 led to the development of high-performance …

THE eastern equatorial Pacific Ocean is one of only three open-ocean regions where low
phytoplankton chlorophyll biomass persists despite perennially high nitrate and phosphate …

SEVERAL classes of organic materials (such as photoanisotropic liquid-crystalline
polymers1–4 and photorefractive polymers5–7) are being investigated for the development …

We propose the application of volume holography to four-dimensional (4-D) spatiospectral
imaging. The proposed systems use materials and techniques developed for holographic …

A general strategy for fabricating thick, optically flat photopolymer recording media with high
dynamic range M/# that exhibit low levels of recording-induced Bragg detuning for …

It is demonstrated that the microscopic mechanism of the photorefractive (PR) effect in
organic composites with low glass transition temperatures involves the formation of …

New glasses in the composition 60Sb 2 O 3-(40-x) NaPO 3-xWO 3 (where x= 0 to 40 mol.%)
were prepared using the melt quenching technique. Different physical properties were …

Reversible photoinduced anisotropy in a series of liquid-crystalline azobenzene side-chain
polyesters is investigated as a function of intensity of the write beam and the sample …

We report high-contrast storage of 64-kbit digital data pages in a photorefractive polymer
material. Single-page writing, reading, and erasing operations were demonstrated with a …

We present an overview of imaging systems that incorporate a volume hologram as one of
the optical field processing elements in the system. We refer to these systems as volume …
