Abstract

In recent work carried out, we introduced the developments made to the Non-local Photo-polymerization Driven Diffusion model, and illustrate some of the useful trends, which the model predicts and then analyse their implications on photopolymer improvement. The model was improved in its physicality through the inclusion of viscosity effects (changes in fractional free volume), multiple components and their photo-kinetic and photo-physical behaviour, and free space vacuoles. In this paper, we further explore this model to provide a more rigorous and informed basis for predicting the behaviours of photopolymer materials in both photo-chemical and photo-physical sides. Such improvements include a) the analysis of the effects of viscosity on the refractive index modulation, b) the effects of the introduction of free space holes, e.g. the volumetric changes, and c) an examination of the effects of local temperatures and various concentration ratios to optimise material performance.
