The task <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> creating a medium for the reversible recording <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> holograms with a<br />
n<strong>on</strong>linear modulati<strong>on</strong> characteristic is essentially opposite to the traditi<strong>on</strong>al trend <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g><br />
ensuring maximum linearity <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> a holographic recording medium. The need for a new<br />
medium is related to the use <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> a holographic correlator for c<strong>on</strong>structing fuzzy algebra<br />
algorithms in artificial intelligence simulators. This requires a medium suitable for writing<br />
Fourier holograms and possessing n<strong>on</strong>linear properties [1] . Previously [2] it was dem<strong>on</strong>strated<br />
that such media are <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g>fered by optically c<strong>on</strong>trolled structures <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> photoc<strong>on</strong>ductor (PC)-<br />
nematic liquid crystal (LC) type with a planar initial orientati<strong>on</strong>. In these structures the<br />
modulati<strong>on</strong> characteristic, representing the dependence <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> the diffracti<strong>on</strong> efficiency <strong>on</strong> the<br />
recording light intensity in the first order <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> diffracti<strong>on</strong>, has a substantially n<strong>on</strong>linear shape<br />
with rising and falling regi<strong>on</strong>s if the phase modulati<strong>on</strong> depth is sufficiently large.<br />
We have carried out the competitive investigati<strong>on</strong> <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> two types <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> the Optically<br />
Addressed Liquid Crystal Spatial Light Modulators (OA LC SLM), optimized for the<br />
holographic applicati<strong>on</strong>: with Sb 2 S 3 and As 40 Se 60 as a photoc<strong>on</strong>ductor. The spectral<br />
characteristics <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> these semic<strong>on</strong>ductors allow a highly sensitive recording medium to be<br />
obtained for writing holograms using He-Ne laser radiati<strong>on</strong>.<br />
OASLM c<strong>on</strong>sist <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> a number <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> thin layers sandwiched between two glass substrates:<br />
a photoc<strong>on</strong>ductor (PC), a liquid crystal (LC), alignment layers and transparent electrodes.<br />
When DC voltage is applied to the electrodes, it is divided between the photoc<strong>on</strong>ductor<br />
and liquid crystal according to the exposure. This enables the optical activity <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> the liquid<br />
crystal layer to be modulated to produce an image. The OASLM based <strong>on</strong> nematic LC<br />
have perfect characteristics and high optical quality. The thickness <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> the LC layer should<br />
be enough to provide the phase shift not less than 2π at the wave length <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> read out light<br />
(814 nm in our case).<br />
We used a holographic technique for studying the modulati<strong>on</strong> characteristics <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> the<br />
OASLM. A He-Ne laser (λ= 633 nm) was used to write in a holographic grating. The<br />
writing beams had equal intensity, and their diameter in the plane <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> photo-semic<strong>on</strong>ductor<br />
was equal to 10 mm. An interference pattern <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> two plane wave fr<strong>on</strong>ts was formed at the<br />
photoc<strong>on</strong>ductor-LC boundary. The intensities <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> the reference and object beams were<br />
equal. The readout was performed by radiati<strong>on</strong> <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> the semic<strong>on</strong>ductor laser <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> the<br />
wavelength λ= 814 nm in a transmissi<strong>on</strong> mode. We studied the behavior <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> the diffracti<strong>on</strong><br />
efficiency in the first order <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> diffracti<strong>on</strong> depending <strong>on</strong> the write light intensity. The value<br />
<str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> diffracti<strong>on</strong> efficiency was determined as the ratio <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> the intensity <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> read-out radiati<strong>on</strong><br />
transmitted in the first diffracti<strong>on</strong> order to the corresp<strong>on</strong>ding value <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> the transmitted from<br />
OASLM radiati<strong>on</strong> in the absence <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> the holographic grating. These light intensities were<br />
measured with a help <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> photomultiplier, which was placed in the Fourier-lens focal plane.<br />
The sample structure was arranged in the optical scheme so that the LC director orientati<strong>on</strong><br />
would coincide with the polarizati<strong>on</strong> vector directi<strong>on</strong> in the readout beam.<br />
The curves <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> diffracti<strong>on</strong> efficiency as a functi<strong>on</strong> <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> the writing light intensity for<br />
different values <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> applied voltage exhibit a rising regi<strong>on</strong> and a falling regi<strong>on</strong>, in which the
