Abstract :
Numerical and experimental analysis of threadlike heterogeneities formation in waveguiding structures formed at the optical beam self-trapping process in photopolymerizable compositions is conducted. The conditions of homogeneous waveguiding channel formation are determined and confirmed by experimental results.
