In present paper the utilization of the two types of inorganic resists: Ag-chalcogenide glass (ChG) structures and thin ChG layers for holograms recording is discussed. The optical characteristics and photographic properties of this materials were investigated, the study of hologram relief formation in ChGAg and ChG layers have been made. Among the investigated ChG layers the As40S20Se40 have shown the most optimal characteristics for the hologram recording. Good mechanical strength and thermostability of ChG layers enabled to use the obtained phase relief holograms after additional treatment for the production of thermo-or photopolymer copies, or galvanic nickel deposition. The high quality polymer copies and nickel matrixes for mass production were obtained from the chalcogenide based master holograms. characteristics of the obtained phase-relief holograms and their copies were investigated.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
