Abstract

The authors present results of the measurements of self-diffraction process inside the nematic liquid crystal cell with a photoconducting polymeric layer poly(N-vinylcarbazole) doped with trinitrofluorenone molecules. The dynamics of diffraction grating fading process versus applied voltage and different Ar+ laser power has been studied. Three-step process of grating’s fading was observed, connected with the charge carrier generation and their mobility in the photoconducting polymer. Theoretical calculations assuming proposed mechanism responsible for the grating decay are in a very good agreement with experimental results.
