Abstract

Abstract A method of preparing a volume type phase hologram film comprises forming a volume type phase hologram in a polymer film formed on a substrate and comprises of a polymer of vinylcarbazoles, and separating the polymer film from the substrate. Preferably, the polymer film is separated from the substrate in a liquid inert to the hologram.
