Azobenzene Containing Low-Molecular Weight Organic Glasses for Optical Recording
2013
Abstract In this work photoinduced processes and holographic surface relief formation in azobenzene containing low- molecular weight organic glasses were studied. The molecular glasses due to trans-cis isomerisation and photo- orientation of molecules possess high sensitivity to the light irradiation and therefore they are promising media for holographic recording. Electric field of linearly polarized light causes an alignment of molecule dipoles perpendicularly to the electric field vector and this process is accompanied by an appearance of photoinduced optical anisotropy in organic glasses. The photoinduced birefringence and dichroism induced by 532 nm light was studied. Holographic recor…

Photoinduced mass transport in amorphous As‐S‐Se films
2012
Direct surface patterning due to photoinduced mass transport in amorphous As-S-Se films has been studied. Illumination of the films with two orthogonally (±45°) polarized beam interference pattern causes the formation of surface relief gratings on the films due to lateral mass transport regarding to light propagation direction. The obtained experimental results showed the dependence of photoinduced surface relief depth (Δh) on film thickness during holographic recording from film side as well as from glass substrate side. After constant exposure doses for the films with a thickness d 1 μm values of Δh do not depend significantly on the film thickness for recording from film side but decreas…
Photoinduced mass transfer in amorphous As 2 S 3 films
2011
The surface relief grating formation in amorphous As2S3 films strongly depends on the polarization state of recording beams. The surface relief grating formation efficiency of s-s and p-p recording beam combination can be essentially enhanced by additional illumination with orthogonal polarization. It is shown that the direction of mass transport on the film surface is determined by the direction of light electric vector (© 2011 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
Photoalignment and Surface-Relief-Grating Formation are Efficiently Combined in Low-Molecular-Weight Halogen-Bonded Complexes
2012
It is demonstrated that halogen bonding can be used to construct low-molecular-weight supramolecular complexes with unique light-responsive properties. In particular, halogen bonding drives the formation of a photoresponsive liquid-crystalline complex between a non-mesogenic halogen bond-donor molecule incorporating an azo group, and a non-mesogenic alkoxystilbazole moiety, acting as a halogen bond-acceptor. Upon irradiation with polarized light, the complex exhibits a high degree of photoinduced anisotropy (order parameter of molecular alignment > 0.5). Moreover, efficient photoinduced surface-relief-grating (SRG) formation occurs upon irradiation with a light interference pattern, with…
Holographic Recording of Surface Relief Gratings on As40S60-xSex Thin Films
2015
The studies of direct holographic recording of the surface relief gratings on amorphous As40S60−xSex thin films are presented. These gratings were created upon exposure to polarized laser beams of various wavelengths (λ = 473 – 650 nm). The orthogonally ±45° linearly polarized light beams were used for recording. The surface structure of the relief gratings was investigated by atomic force microscopy. The influence of laser beam wavelength and spatial frequency of the gratings recorded (grating period ?) on the surface relief gratings formation for every composition was examined.
<title>Relief holographic recording in amorphous As-S-Se</title>
2003
The relief-phase holographic gratings in amorphous As-S-Se thin films were recorded and studied. The holographic recording was performed by He-Ne laser (0.6328 μm). The influence of etching and cohernet self-enhancement processes on the formation of surface relief in amorphous As-S-Se thin films was studied.© (2003) COPYRIGHT SPIE--The International Society for Optical Engineering.

Photoinduced direct surface relief formation in amorphous As40S15Se45 films
2013
Abstract The surface relief grating formation in As40S15Se45 films under He–Ne laser wave-length λ = 0.6328 μm light influence was examined. The obtained experimental results showed the strong dependence of photoinduced surface relief depth on illumination dose and film thickness during holographic recording from film side as well as from glass substrate side. The surface relief grating profile over the thickness range 0.13
Surface relief grating formation in amorphous As40S15Se45 and As2S3 films under 0.532 μm wavelength illumination
2014
In this research we have studied the influence of λ = 0.532 μm laser light illumination on the formation and properties of surface relief gratings in amorphous As2S3 and As40Se15Se45 films, as well as a bulk As2S3 sample. The surface relief grating formation was studied for a wide range of grating periods (∼1 – ∼80 μm) for the variable thicknesses of the samples. The examination of the relief depth, Δh, and its dependence on the grating period at constant exposures shows that the impact of sample thickness could manifest itself as a shift in the optimal grating period at holographic surface relief formation (As2S3) and affect the process itself.
