Abstract

The possibility of the application of acrylate compositions and Bayfol HX photopolymers in holographic technologies is considered. The holographic characteristics of materials, their advantages, and limitations in relation to the tasks of obtaining holographic elements based on periodic structures are given. The conditions for obtaining controlled two and multichannel diffraction beam splitters are determined with advantages in terms of the simplicity of the fabrication process. The diffraction and selective properties of volume and hybrid periodic structures by radiation incidence in a wide range of angles in three-dimensional space are investigated, and new properties are identified that are of interest for the development of elements of holographic solar concentrators with advantages in the material used and the range of incidence angles. A new application of polymer materials in a new method of holographic 3D printing for polymer objects with arbitrary shape fabrication based on the projection of a holographic image of the object into the volume of photopolymerizable material is proposed, the advantage of which, relative to additive 3D printing technologies, is the elimination of the sequential synthesis of a three-dimensional object. The factors determining the requirements for the material, fabrication conditions, and properties of three-dimensional objects are identified and investigated.

Summary

Introduction

The great interest in using photopolymer materials in holographic technologies is determined by a number of advantages relative to other holographic materials, such as silver halide materials, dichromated gelatin (DCG), and photorefractive glasses, associated with their relatively low cost and simplicity of the processes for elements fabrication that are formed as a result of polymerization under light exposure without laborious preliminary or subsequent processing. The processes in materials, their properties, as well as the properties of holographic elements for various practical applications, including data storage [10,11], sensors [12], protective elements [13], and elements of holographic solar concentrators [14,15] are studied. Despite the improvement and provision of new properties, many materials or their components are not sufficiently accessible, difficult to prepare, and the processes of obtaining, and properties of, elements do not sufficiently satisfy the increasing requirements of practical tasks. If such traditional areas as data storage and sensors
