Excited-state absorption in erbium-doped silica fiber with simultaneous excitation at 977 and 1531 nm
We report a study of the excited-state absorption (ESA) in erbium-doped silica fiber (EDF) pumped at 977 nm, when the fiber is simultaneously excited by signal radiation at 1531 nm. We show, both expe...

Influence of thin metal nanolayers on the photodetective properties of ZnO thin films
We investigate the photoconductivity properties of ZnO thin films prepared by pulsed laser deposition with and without metals (Au or Pt) on the surface. The covering of nanostructured metals can large...

In the present paper, we extensively study the optical diffraction in two- and three-dimensional vector holograms and demonstrate the reconstruction of polarized optical images recorded in azobenzene-containing amorphous polymers (AP) and polymer-dissolved liquid-crystalline composites (PDLCC). The polarization states of the interference light are not modulated in the isotropic AP films, while modulated in the anisotropic PDLCC films. The information of the polarized optical image is recorded as the polarization induced anisotropy in the AP and PDLCC medium and is reconstructed as the polarized optical images. The theoretical consideration well explained the characteristics of the reconstructed polarized optical images from both two- and three-dimensional vector holograms. ©2009 American Institute of Physics
