Holographic formation and diffractive properties of hybrid periodic structures
Abstract:
The paper presents formation processes and diffraction properties of hybrid periodic structures such as volume gratings with refractive index modulation, on the surface of which relief gratings are formed. It is shown experimentally that relief gratings with significant diffraction properties in used photopolymer materials are formed in a narrow range of exposure parameters. It is established that the formation of a relief grating on the surface of a volume grating leads to significant changes in the selective properties of structures. We also consider possible applications of hybrid structures.

Structure and Physical Properties of Alkynes
In nature, compounds containing both carbon and hydrogen are known as "hydrocarbons". Aliphatic hydrocarbons are compounds whose molecules contain saturated single bonds (i.e., alkanes) or unsaturated double or triple bonds. Alkenes contain carbon–carbon double bonds and have a structural formula CnH2n. Unsaturated hydrocarbons containing carbon–carbon triple bonds are called "alkynes" and are structurally represented by the formula CnH2n-2.
