Analysis of voltage effect on holographic gratings by modulation transfer function

Appl Opt. 2011 May 1;50(13):1827-31. doi: 10.1364/AO.50.001827.

Abstract

The experimental data allow us to determine the imaging quality of holographic gratings with photosensitive film using organic material based on a polyvinyl alcohol matrix doped with potassium dichromate and nickel (II) chloride hexahydrate. The diffraction efficiency is estimated by different spatial frequencies, and the readout image quality is analyzed by the modulation transfer function. The experiment is carried out, with and without voltage application, at different spatial frequencies to obtain the image quality of photosensitive film.
