Abstract

Bleaching is an important phase in the recording of holograms on silver halide materials, ensuring a high diffraction efficiency which is so impor tant for holographic images. In this chapter the general theory for photo graphic bleaching is reviewed, followed by a detailed description of the holographic bleaching theory. The history of the holographic bleaching technique is summarized and common bleach baths used in holography today are carefully described. The printout problem of bleached holograms is treated at the end of the chapter, where also the stability of bleached holograms as well as methods of increasing the printout resistance are dis cussed.
