Abstract

Summary form only given. Holograms that can move and adapt to changing environments have interesting and important applications in diverse applications such as ultrafast femtosecond holography and laser-based ultrasound receivers. We have developed two types of adaptive holographic films (AHF) based on semiconductor heterostructures. These are photorefractive quantum wells (PRQW) and holographic vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser structures (HVCSEL).
