Reliefographical structures based on doped chalcogenide semiconductors for optical data storage in wide spectral region including x-ray

We report a non-silver, two-layered semiconductor-thermoplastic structure for visible and X-ray data recording. Photothermoplastic materials (PTPM) consist the chalcogenide glassy semiconductors and polymeric thermoplastic materials. Our researches were aimed to find out a possibility of using the PTPM as recording media for imaging including X-rays.
