Abstract
Holographic recording in polycrystalline indium-oxide (InOx) and indiu m-tin-oxide (ITO) thin films, grown by de magnetron sputtering, is dem onstrated. This recording, performed at relatively low optical power l evels in the ultraviolet (UV) wavelength range (325 nm), exhibits very large coupling strength and a slow but dynamic behavior. The observed phenomena are attributed to localized photorefractive effects and app ear to be independent of the electrical characteristics of the films. (C) 1996 American Institute of Physics.
