Experimental results concerning the real-time hologram recording process in dichromated poly(vinyl alcohol) are presented. Self-enhancement, the increase in diffraction efficiency of the holographic gratings in the dark after recording, is also presented. The influence of the recording parameters (pH, exposure energy, dichromate concentration) on the self-enhancement gain is shown. Maximum gain was 6, and self-enhancement occurred during the 3 days following the exposure. The results and a model for the reduction of chromium ions corresponding to the formation of the grating are discussed.

An active-mode organic light-emitting diode (AMOLED) display on a fabric substrate is expected to be a prominent textile display for e-textile applications. However, the large surface roughness of the fabric substrate limits the aperture ratio-the area ratio of the organic light-emitting diode (OLED) to the total pixel area. In this study, the aperture ratio of the AMOLED panel fabricated on the polyethylene terephthalate fabric substrate was enhanced by applying a stacked-pixel structure, in which the OLED was deposited above the organic thin-film transistor (OTFT) pixel circuit layer.

This work is devoted to determining the contribution of amide groups in the photoredox and cross-linking process of dichromated polyacrylamide based on the fate of the photoactive species and of the polymer under conventional and laser irradiation. It was shown that, in parallel to the reduction of chromium(VI) into chromium(V), the cross-linking of the matrix occurred through a complexation reaction around chromium(V) and through formation of covalent bonds between macromolecular chains. A comparison with dichromated poly(vinyl alcohol) was also reported to highlight the role of the chemical structure of the polymeric matrix in the mechanism of hologram formation.

View Article and Find Full Text PDFDichromated cellulose triacetate (DCCTA), a new, to our knowledge, holographic recording film, is presented. The material has some special properties, such as good environmental stability, a stronger real-time effect, strong relief modulation, a stratified sensitivity without the use of any coating technique, a light weight, flexibility, easy fabrication in a large area, and more. By the systematic study of the physicochemical changes of the microstructure of DCCTA in photochemical reaction processes with an electron paramagnetic resonance spectrometer, an infrared spectrometer, an UV spectrophotometer, and interferometric microscopy, we found that, as a dichromated light-sensitive system, DCCTA has a novel imaging mechanism: Light irradiation causes not only the formation of the cross links between Cr(3+) and molecular chains but also the decomposition of the main molecular chains of the film.
