Paper Abstract
The photoinduced reversible color change between thermally stable and meta stable states of spiropyran molecules can modulate the absorption and the refractive index of the photochromic doped poly(vinylcarbazole) films. The effect of the exposure energy and the film thickness on the real-time diffraction efficiency was investigated. The optimal thickness for which the maximum diffraction efficiency is obtained was found to be around 30 micrometers for an exposure energy greater than 1005 mJ/cm2. High efficiency erasable holographic recording at 350 nm was performed. A maximum diffraction efficiency of 13% was achieved for spiropyran doped poly(vinylcarbazole) films.
