Optically switched volume holographic elements

Optics Letters, 1995
We optically switched the diffraction efficiency of volume holographic elements recorded in DMP-128 photopolymer by use of a thermal nonlinearity of the liquid crystal 5CB. The liquid crystal was incorporated into the volume grating. The diffraction efficiency of small areas of the grating was switched with a control beam power of several milliwatts ...

Wavelength performance of holographic optical elements

Applied Optics, 1985
A comprehensive treatment is presented for the diffraction efficiencies of transmission holographic elements and cascade lenses when subject to broad spectral and field angle detunings. Experimental measurements are made in support of our theory on holographic optical elements fabricated in bleached silver-halide emulsions and in dichromated gelatin ...

Partitioned Holographic Optical Elements

Optical Engineering, 1982
A new type of holographic optical element is demonstrated which combines some of the flexibility of computer generated holograms with the large space-bandwidth product and high diffraction efficiency of interferometrically recorded volume phase holograms.

Advances in holographic optical elements

SPIE Proceedings, 1990
Recent advances in the design and recording of holographic optical elements are illustrated by means of two representative examples - focussing lens and multiple beam grating. The focussing lens design method is based on an analytic ray-tracing procedure that yields an analytic solution for the diffractive grating function.

Holographic Optical Elements

SPIE Proceedings, 1989
The possibility of storing lightwaves on holographic material can not only be used for recording and reconstructing of three-dimensional objects, but also to deflect lightwaves in an unconventionally manner and for divergent an focusing properties. This kind of specific holograms, which hold imaging properties are called Holographic Optical Elements ...

Optimized holographic optical elements

Journal of the Optical Society of America A, 1986
This paper presents a method for designing optimal holographic optical elements. The method is based on the minimization of the mean-squared difference between the desired and the actual output waves. The minimization yields an integral equation for the grating function of the designed optical element.

Holographic Optical Elements

Optical Engineering, 1975
This article is a survey of the characteristics, technology and applications of Holographic Optical Elements (HOEs), considered as general elements in an optical system. HOEs function by diffraction of light from a generalized grating structure with nonuniform groove spacing. HOEs provide a system of thin film optics.

Use of holographic optical elements in optical storage

Optical Society of America Annual Meeting, 1990
Reflection holographic optical elements for CD/CD-ROM optical pickups and polarizing holographic optical elements for WO and MO disk read/write heads have been developed. This talk discusses how holographic optical elements fit for optical heads, including their advantages and disadvantages from the view point of application approach.

Dichromated gelatin for the fabrication of holographic optical elements

Applied Optics, 1979
Hardened dichromated gelatin is the best material available today for the fabrication of holographic optical elements (HOEs) because of its low scattering, large refractive index modulation capacity, and other unique properties such as reprocessibility. On the basis of experimental data accumulated during the last several years, we describe holographic

Holoconcentrators as holographic optical elements

ICALEO '83: Proceedings of the Information Processing and Holography Symposium, 1983
In this paper, two basic problems of dichromated gelatin holoconcentrator designs: ray-tracing computing and diffraction efficiency characteristics optimization, are considered.
