Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 131 words
A method for recording permanent thin-phase holograms wherein holograms are recorded in only one plane which comprises changing with coherent light and without further development processing the refractive index in selected areas of a recording medium and detecting with coherent light the refractive index changes wherein the recording medium comprises a substrate having a recording layer thereon wherein the recording layer comprises an olefinically unsaturated negative photoresist polymer containing a soluble α-diketone which has the formula ##STR3##wherein R and R' independently are selected from the group consisting of methyl, branched chain alkyl and cyclic hydrocarbon groups wherein the carbon atoms are part of an aromatic or aliphatic ring and R and R' together can form part of an aromatic or aliphatic ring; and x is an integer of 1 to 2.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 131 words
A method for recording permanent thin-phase holograms wherein holograms are recorded in only one plane which comprises changing with coherent light and without further development processing the refractive index in selected areas of a recording medium and detecting with coherent light the refractive index changes wherein the recording medium comprises a substrate having a recording layer thereon wherein the recording layer comprises an olefinically unsaturated negative photoresist polymer containing a soluble α-diketone which has the formula ##STR3##wherein R and R' independently are selected from the group consisting of methyl, branched chain alkyl and cyclic hydrocarbon groups wherein the carbon atoms are part of an aromatic or aliphatic ring and R and R' together can form part of an aromatic or aliphatic ring; and x is an integer of 1 to 2.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 11 words
A method according to claim 1 wherein the α-diketone is camphorquinone.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 18 words
The method according to claim 1 wherein the olefinically unsaturated negative photoresist polymer is based on polyvinyl cinnamate.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 19 words
The method according to claim 1 wherein the olefinically unsaturated negative photoresist polymer is based on polyvinyl cinnamylidene ester.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 51 words
The method according to claim 1 wherein the weight percent of the α-diketone is from about 1 to 30 percent and the weight percent of the negative photoresist polymer is from about 70 to 99 percent with the weight percent of the α-diketone and the negative photoresist polymer totaling 100 percent.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 50 words
The method according to claim 1 wherein the weight percent of the α-diketone is from about 5 to 20 percent and the weight percent of the negative photoresist polymer is from 80 to 95 percent with the weight percent of the α-diketone and the negative photoresist polymer totaling 100 percent.
