Ionic liquid was used as additive in photosensitive photopolymerizable materials. Ionic liquid as additive in photopolymerizable hologram material increases the sensitivity, the resolution, and the refractive index modulation of the material efficiently, which present strong diffusion after stopping the exposure due to the diffusion-controlled polymerization in ionic liquid. The diffraction efficiency was raised up to the theoretical maximum of 34% in the thin hologram.
