Abstract:
When a dye solution is exposed to intense light radiation with a wavelength within the absorption band of the dye molecules, a change in the populations of the ground and excited states of the molecules is observed, and, as a consequence, a change in the optical characteristics of the dye solution. Dye solutions were the first nonlinear media on which dynamic holograms were recorded [1]. When analyzing the recording of dynamic holograms on dyes, as a rule, an approximation is used, in which the intensity of the reference and readout waves is much higher than the intensity of the signal and reconstructed waves [2, 3]. Another case, no less interesting and often implemented in practice, is the recording of a dynamic hologram, provided that the intensity of the recording waves is much higher than the intensity of the readout and reconstructed waves.
