Holographic recording material and holographic recording method

摘要

A hologram recording material is provided and has at least a silver halide, an organic refractive index-modulating agent, and a binder. The silver halide undergoes sensitization in accordance with interference fringes caused by holographic exposure, to thus form a latent image. Thereafter the silver halide is subjected to a development process to thus develop the thus-sensitized silver halide, thereby causing reaction of the organic refractive index-modulating agent. Hence, the interference fringes formed by refractive index modulation are recorded.
