Dichromated Gelatin As A Holographic Storage Medium

Dichromated gelatin is considered to be one of the best holographic storage media available today for many applications because of its low scattering and absorption, large refractive index modulation capacity, moderate exposure, high resolution, and other unique capabilities such as reprocessibility. Holographic characteristics of dichromated gelatin are described on the basis of experimental data and several promising application areas of dichromated gelatin holograms are discussed.
