A. Popov et al., Spectrally selective holographic optical elements based on a thick polymermedium with diffusional amplification, J OPT A-P A, 2(5), 2000, pp. 494-499
A thick rigid polymer recording medium with self-amplification of holograms
owing to diffusion of phenanthrenequinone molecules was used to find effic
ient holographic optical elements with high-spectral-selectivity interferen
ce filters and multiple demultiplexers. Several examples of practical appli
cations are briefly described in this paper, showing the benefits of such o
ptical elements fur the fields of astronomy, spectroscopy and communication
technologies.
