Abstract

Abstract: Photorefractive (PR) polymers offer the high potential of developing a large area platform for recording dynamic holograms. They are made by carefully manipulating the energy levels and concentrations of the components required for charge generation, transport and trapping, and modulation of refractive index. The fact that dynamic holograms can be recorded in photorefractive polymers without the necessity of any special processing techniques makes it very attractive for many applications including refreshable 3D displays. This chapter describes the basic theory used to develop photorefractive polymers, molecular energy level requirements and the components used to develop highly efficient polymer composites. In addition, it describes some of the recent applications of photorefractive polymers.
