The dependence of diffraction efficiency as a funct~on of film thickness and incident angle has been investigated in amorphous chalcogenide thin films, which act as a polarization holographic materials. Especially a-(Se, S) based films exhibit a number of photoinduced phenomena not observed in other types of amorphous thin films. Holographic gratings in amorphous As-Ge-Se-S thin films have been formed using the mutual perpendicular polarized(linearly) He-Ne laser light. We could obtain the optimum condition to get high diffraction efficiency.

Amorphous chalcogenide thin films, especially a-(Se, S) based films, exhibit a number of photoinduced phenomena not observed in other types of amorphous thin films. The polarization holographic grating has been formed in amorphous As-Ge-Se-S thin films using two linearly polarized He-Ne laser light. In addition, dffraction efficiency has been measured by the same laser of a relative lower intensity at the same time.

Holographic volume grating couplers (VGCs) are become increasingly attractive device for the application of optical interconnects because of their higher preferential coupling, dry fabrication processing, compact, and low cost. In this paper, the analysis, design, and implementation of the waveguide-imbedded input-output VGC with $45^{\circ}$ grating slant angle using holographic photopolymer(Dupont HRF600-20) for guided-wave optical interconnection applications, are presented. To show the usefulness of the proposed VGC, we fabricated the VGCs operating at 632.8nm and 1550nm wavelengths and its results are presented. The measured input coupling efficiency of the single VGC with $0.5{\mu}m$ grating period at 632.8nm wavelength is above 86.6% for TE-polarization. The input coupling efficiency of the $1\times2$ VGC with $0.73068{\mu}m$ grating period at 1550nm wavelength is about 90.8%.
