Claim 1
Independent Claim
148 words
A method for increasing the spectral sensitivity of a dichromated gelatin-based hologram which comprises the steps of a. preparing an aqueous solution of gelatin and ammonium dichromate; b. casting said solution onto a glass substrate to form a substrate having a radiation sensitive dichromated gelatin layer; c. exposing said layered substrate to room light to preharden said gelatin layer; d. sensitizing said gelatin layer by immersing said layered substrate into a solution containing (1) a spectrally sensitive acid fast violet dye selected from the group consisting of the thiazine and triphenylmethane dyes and, (2) ammonium dichromate; e. drying said sensitized gelatin layer and then exposing said dried gelatin layer to the interfering beams of a He-Ne laser to give a 200 mJ/cm 2 average exposure; and f. developing said exposed gelatin layer to form a phase hologram containing a permanent fringe pattern from the said interfering laser beams.
