Abstract
We report diffraction gratings recording in polymer dispersed liquid crystals (PDLC) material with a beam suffering total internal reflection from the sample air surface. The real time diffraction efficiency kinetics as well as the polarization, voltage behavior and angular selectivity of the gratings are studied at different reconstruction geometries. An increase of three times of the diffraction efficiency in case of applied voltage is observed for one of these geometries in opposite to typical PDLC switchable gratings. Such dependence appears in most of the geometries and is connected to the specific formation of two gratings by the Stetson scheme.
