Volume Bragg grating with 96% diffraction efficiency (DE) was efficiently formed by holographic photopolymerization in blend syrup of photocurable trimethylolpropane triacrylate monomer and nematic liquid crystal. The formation dynamics of the composite gratings was quantitatively characterized under the frame of one-dimensional reaction-diffusion model with a revision of individual decay constants for monomer diffusion and reaction. Initial parameters of diffusion and reaction were analytically determined from the measured first order DE at the beginning stage. Evolutions of the DE, both in curing and postcuring periods, were excellently simulated, especially with postcuring reaction been taken into account. ©2009 American Institute of Physics
