Abstract

This paper discusses a two-dimensional crossed holographic grating as an optical element capable of creating raster images, the recording of which in a photosensitive medium with relief-phase response makes it possible to obtain other optical elements--for example, microlens rasters. The extent to which the photochemical processing of the photographic material affects the optical properties of two-dimensional holographic gratings is investigated.
