 Silver halide (e.g. silver bromide)
crystal struck by photon.A Br- ion is
freed and captured by an Ag+ ion. This
forms a latent image.
 Some photons give its energy to a
bromine ion and emit an electron
 In a short time it loges in a low energy
electron trap near the surface of the
crystal
 This low energy electron trap is called
a ‘sensitivity spec’

Optical volume holograms and their applications

Editor's Notes

  • #16 Sensitivity refers to the extent of refractive index modulation produced per unit of exposure. Diffraction efficiency is proportional to the square of the index modulation times the effective thickness. The dynamic range determines how many holograms may be multiplexed in a single volume data. Spatial light modulators (SLM) are pixelated input devices (liquid crystal panels), used to imprint the data to be stored on the object beam.
  • #17 Imaging spectroscopy can be achieved by selecting a single wavelength for each pixel in a full camera field.Volume holograms are used as tunable optical filters to produce monochromatic images, also known as hyperspectral imaging.
  • #20 Commonly, a microscope objective is used to collect the object wave front. 
  • #23  strict alignment criteria and long optical train.  high space­bandwidth product and extremely fast process time. The process involves taking the individual Fourier Transforms of the “Input” and “reference” images, taking their product and then Fourier Transforming the result.
