Holographic grating recording and relaxation is studied in different azobenzene molecular glassy films by circularly orthogonally polarized 532 nm laser beams L and R. The readout was made by circularly polarized (R or L) 632.8 nm laser beam. Sandwich-type samples (glass-film-glass) were also studied. Maximum diffraction efficiency of 81% has been achieved in sandwich-type AR-173 film. The following relaxation features have been found: after reaching diffraction efficiency (DE) maximum no DE decay took place; DE read out by R-polarized beam was always higher than that by L-polarized beam; in sandwich-type samples DE decayed until zero when read out by R-polarization whereas DE was zero when read out by L-polarization. 50% relaxation times varied from 4 to 44 minutes, and they mainly decreased when grating period was increased. The observed relaxation peculiarities can be understood if one assumes that volume birefringence grating (VBG) is recorded followed by volume density grating (VDG) and surface relief grating (SRG) recording. R-polarization "feels" all gratings whereas L-polarization only VDG and SRG. At large exposures VDG and SRG dominate. These results confirm the conclusion made by J.Mikelsone in her 2018 PhD thesis that birefringence grating recording in azobenzene materials is a neccessary condition for SRG appearance.

AbstractElectron and ion beams are indispensable tools in numerous fields of science and technology, ranging from radiation therapy to microscopy and lithography. Advanced beam control facilitates new functionalities. Here, we report the guiding and splitting of charged particle beams using ponderomotive forces created by the motion of charged particles through electrostatic optics printed on planar substrates. Shape and strength of the potential can be locally tailored by the lithographically produced electrodes’ layout and the applied voltages, enabling the control of charged particle beams within precisely engineered effective potentials. We demonstrate guiding of electrons and ions for a large range of energies (from 20 to 5000 eV) and masses (from 5 · 10−4 to 131 atomic mass units) as well as electron beam splitting for energies up to the keV regime as a proof-of-concept for more complex beam manipulation.

In this study, a compound speckle interferometer for measuring three-degree-of-freedom (3-DOF) displacement is proposed. The system, which combines heterodyne interferometry, speckle interferometry and beam splitting techniques, can perform precision 3-DOF displacement measurements, while still having the advantages of high resolution and a relatively simple configuration. The incorporation of speckle interferometry allows for non-contact displacement measurements by detecting the phase of the speckle interference pattern formed from the convergence of laser beams on the measured rough surface. Experiments were conducted to verify the measurement capabilities of the system, and the results show that the proposed system has excellent measurement capabilities suitable for future real-world applications.
