39. The 458-nm band was used for encoding information in ordered domains of PMMA beads to avoid simultaneous bleaching of Nile blue during "writing", which occurred when high power 488-nm band was used.
40. In the current work, one-photon-induced photobleaching provided depth discrimination of about 15 μm.
41. Some dyes succumb to decomposition during the polymerization process. Thus, a proper adjustment should be made to control effective dye concentration in the host polymer.
