A aid to scientists and engineers involved in the development of photopolymers for electronics and imaging. This text presents information on polymer applications. Emphasis is placed on the interrelations between the mechanisms of photochemical and photophysical processes occurring in photopolymers and their application in the production of integrated circuits and imaging. The book also offers an overview of the history of the development, investigation and application of photoreactive polymers. Included are descriptions of novel photoinitiators and sensitizers for visible or infrared light imaging, polymer backbone initiators, and other materials. The book also provides analyses of the photopolymerization mechanism in the matrix, including photoinduced energy and charge transfer, radical reactions in photopolymers, and oxygen and diffusion effects. Researchers discuss holographic photopolymers, liquid crystal polymers used in imaging and data storage, and photoresists for electronic applications, with attention to practical uses. This text is designed to assist researchers in the development of new polymers and the optimization of existing systems. The book is also suitable as a text for students of imaging science, materials science and polymer photochemistry. This book should be of interest to scientists, engineers and students working in the development of photosensitve electronic and imaging materials.
