Abstract

A model of reversible recording medium based on photochromic molecules dispersed in a glassy polymeric matrix is considered. It is shown that electron energy migration and quenching of electron-excited photochroms can lead to bistability of photoconversion extent and absorption dichroism under linearly polarized excitation. Applications of the model to optical information processing are analyzed.
