Abstract
In the present work, a 3-Dimensional diffusion model is proposed to predict the main properties of Diffractive Optical Elements (DOEs), recorded in photopolymers, including refractive index modulation and the evolution of the transverse intensity distribution. The model enables the selection of appropriate material characteristics based on the intended application of the DOE. Specifically, a PVA/AA photopolymer based on acrylamide is simulated using the proposed model, considering coverplating and index matching systems to mitigate the effects of thickness variation. In order to compare its properties using the suggested model, the simulation focuses on a Fibonacci Lens and the dependece of the intensity on the polymerization rate. Accordingly, axial intensity pattern is represented to prove the bifocal-behaviour of these diffractive lenses.
