From protein to photoprotein, validating application to diffractive optics

摘要

Photopolymers are widely used to elaborate diffractive components by light wavefront engineering. Photopolymer material is light structured through wavefront engineering causing interferences that will be printed in photopolymer layer to constitute the diffractive structure. We show that good diffractive components results can be obtained with photoprotein produced by metal doping of selected proteins coming form biology or biotechnology. We validate this for one application concerning the diffractive storage.
