Zusammenfassung, Abstract
The formation of holographic gratings in an azo glass is investigated for the simple case of an intensity gratingin the s-polarization of the recording beams. A dual grating is formed as a function of time with a refractive index grating and a relief grating. The diffraction efficiency as a function of recording time is discussed in a model of two consecutive processes with a phase shift. A material transport processis involved in the formation of relief patterns. An additional electrical corona field perpendicular to the sample leads to a magnification of the relief pattern. This process also works in case of a homogeneous exposure.
