Abstract
Abstract A method of passivating dichromated gelatin holograms to high relative humidity ambients is disclosed. The method involves a developing process whereby a dichromated gelatin hologram, which has been exposed to a laser light, is initially treated with a first solvent which both swells and photographically fixes the exposed hologram and also introduces a high relative humidity passivating species into the photographically fixed holographic film. The swollen and fixed hologram is then treated with a second solvent which both removes the first solvent and develops the hologram. A subsequent baking of the developed hologram passivates it to high relative humidity conditions.
