Abstract
Polymer based holographic recording materials are promising media for data storage applications. Among these, PMMA based materials have a long history. We present new results with one such material, consisting of PMMA with phenanthrenequinone (PQ) molecules. Specifically, the suitability of this material for holographic data storage will be discussed as well as applications to optical correlation systems
