Photopolymer materials have received a great deal of attention because they are
inexpensive, self-processing materials that are extremely versatile, offering many …

In this paper a brief review of the theoretical modelling of free-radical photopolymerization,
which has been discussed in the literature, is presented. Particular attention is given to …

The photochemical processes present during free-radical-based holographic grating
formation are examined. A kinetic model is presented, which includes, in a more nearly …

The development of suitable recording media for applications such as holographic optical
elements and holographic data storage are of significant research and commercial interest …

A deeper understanding of the processes, which occur during free radical
photopolymerization, is necessary in order to develop a fully comprehensive model, which …

An experimental and theoretical investigation of the preparation and exposure of multilayer
photosensitive materials is presented. It is shown how the recorded change in the refractive …

Photopolymers are playing an ever more important role in diverse areas of research such as
holographic data storage, hybrid photonic circuits, and solitary waves. In each of these …

Photopolymer materials can be used as recording media for self-written waveguides
(SWWs) as they can exhibit a large refractive index change and high photo-sensitivity. In …

Self-written waveguide (SWW) trajectories fabricated inside a dry photopolymer bulk
material, acrylamide/polyvinyl alcohol (AA/PVA), are studied. Their production using both …

Several studies of the time varying photon absorption effects, which occur during the
photoinitiation process involving in photopolymer materials, have been presented. Three …
