Abstract

A photosensitive material, suitable for image-wise recording, e.g., holographic recording of data or other information, comprises an organic species in an organic-inorganic matrix, the organic species comprising a material having a refractive index which changes upon exposure to actinic radiation. The organic-inorganic matrix may be an organically modified glass. The photo-sensitive material may be made using the sol-gel process.
