Fundamental Holography: ITMO Researchers Develop Method for Printing Holograms in Color
… on multicomponent acrylate ink. This solution is put on a film that already contains a hologram recorded at the wavelength corresponding to the blue color (488 nm). The ink penetrates the layers of the film, also referred to as the Bragg diffraction grating, causing swelling of these layers, thus changing the grating’s period and light reflection conditions. As a re…
