摘要:
A process for hardening gelatin holograms after dehydration involving subjecting the hologram to an atmosphere containing aldehyde vapor and water vapor. The process provides hardening of the gelatin hologram to increase resistance to moisture and heat without adversely affecting diffraction efficiency. Monitoring of the diffraction efficiency during the aldehyde-water vapor treatment allows fine tuning of the hologram efficiency and evenness.

The present invention relates to a chemical metallization process, particularly for the spatially selective metallization of electrically insulating surfaces. This process employs a chemically stable, radiation sensitive sensitizer layer which contains chromium complex compounds and noble metal ions.

The sensitivity of a positive working electron beam resist is increased by using as the resist material a resin which is a condensation product of formaldehyde with a phenol or a cresol having a chloro substituent ortho to the hydroxyl group on its aromatic ring.

Hardenable gelatine recording materials are used in a process for the production of lightfast phase halograms. The recording material is hardened by the exposure to light and sensitized with ammonium dichromate. After exposure, it is developed, dehydrated and hardened. Development is carried out in a desensitizing bath containing formaldehyde sulphite and is followed by hardening in a formalin solution. Dehydration is carried out in two successive stages. In the first stage, the material is treated with an aqueous isopropanol solution and in the second stage with a concentrated isopropanol solution to which formaldehyde is added.

A technique for increasing the photographic speed of dichromated gelatin destined for use in holographic system involves subjecting the gelatin to an ammonia-water vapor ambient subsequent to exposure and prior to development.

Photosensitive lacquer having a pH of between 6.7 and 8.2 and containing polyvinyl alcohol, a light sensitive chromium compound for hardening the alcohol, a dipolar aprotic substance. The lacquer layers may be dried at temperatures up to about 100* C. without causing hardening of the polyvinyl alcohol. The invention relates to a photosensitive lacquer which consists of a solution in water of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) in which a hexavalant chromium compound is present, to a method of preparing such lacquers, and to their use in manufacturing patterns according to a photomechanical method. The photosensitive lacquers which are known as such and which consist of a solution of polyvinyl alcohol in which a compound is present containing a hexavalent chromium, are used in various sectors of technology, for example, in manufacturing lithographic plates for offset printing, in which the photohardened layer serves as an ink-absorbing layer, in manufacturing printed circuits in which the photohardened layer serves as an etching resist and in manufacturing picture screens for cathode-ray tubes in which a pattern of substances luminescing upon excitation by electrons is provided on the screen with a photosensitive lacquer. In all these methods the quality of the photosensitive lacquer is very important. The quality is determined inter alia by the shelf life of the photolacquer, the photosensitivity of layers obtained with the photolacquer, and the extent to which the socalled dark reaction in a layer obtained with the photolacquer can occur and which may give rise to hardening of the lacquer on nonexposed, thus undesired, places. The photosensitive lacquers commonly used in the art and consisting of a solution in water of polyvinyl alcohol usually contain ammonium bichromate or ammonium chromate, which latter compound, on drying the lacquer layer, is converted into ammonium dichromate, while ammonia (NH3) volatilizes. Other bichromates which are sometimes used are potassium bichromate and sodium bichromate.
摘要:
A method is disclosed for forming a multi-layer holographic device 22. A first hologram is formed on a major surface of a substrate 14. The first hologram is desensitized to prevent interaction with a second subsequently formed hologram. The second hologram is formed conterminous with said first hologram.

A method of developing a holographically recorded interference pattern in a dichromatic gelatin structure is provided. The process includes developing the hologram pattern by hydration and dehydration, baking the developed hologram pattern at a temperature equal or above 120.degree. C. for approximately 24 hours, rehydrating the developed hologram and dehydrating the developed hologram at a temperature of approximately 60.degree. C. for approximately 48 hours until the design wavelength response is attained to provide a stabilized hologram.
