Albumen as a relief recording media for spatial distributions of infrared radiation. Fabrication of interference gratings and microlenses.
It is shown that a relief is generated when spatial distributions of infrared light (lambda = 10.6 microm) are recorded on albumen films. The relief can be applied to the fabrication of microelements, such as diffraction gratings and microlenses. Examples are shown.
