Abstract :
Photoconducting polymers doped with nonlinear optical molecules show important photorefractive properties. These new polymer composites are promising materials for photonic applications such as dynamic holographic storage and image processing. The photorefractive properties of a highly efficient polymer composite based on poly(N-vinylcarbazole) are investigated and discussed
