Photopolymer materials for volume phase holographic optical elements [PDF]
Volume Phase Holographic Gratings (VPHGs) cover a relevant position as dispersing elements in spectrographic instrumentations with low and medium resolution. This is due to their unique properties especially in terms of diffraction efficiency. These devices have to provide dispersion, resolving power, bandwidth and diffraction efficiency according to ...

Optical vortex generation by volume holographic elements with embedded phase singularity: Effects of misalignments [PDF]
Based on the linear theory for optical vortex (OV) formation in volume holographic elements (HE) with embedded phase singularity (A. Bekshaev et al., Opt. Commun. 285 (2012) 4005), we analyze theoretically the OV-beams obtained when the incident Gaussian beam axis deviates from the optical axis of the HE.

One-step volumetric additive manufacturing of complex polymer structures. [PDF]
Two limitations of additive manufacturing methods that arise from layer-based fabrication are slow speed and geometric constraints (which include poor surface quality). Both limitations are overcome in the work reported here, introducing a new volumetric
