Self-defocusing of a Gaussian light beam in a bulk photorefractive BaTiGl crystal is demonstrated. This is a low light intensity process which results from the coupling and power …
This monograph collects together papers by leading researchers in the field of photorefractive nonlinear optics. All of the works are presented by eminent researchers in …
A nonlinear optical phenomenon, namely, the surface waves in photorefractive crystals with a diffusion nonlinearity (of the gradient type), is suggested and analyzed. These waves can …
A laser beam propagating in a photorefractive crystal generates a refractive-index profile that deflects the beam to one side. This nonlinear deflection can be balanced by total …

The ability of photorefractive crystals such as barium titanate and strontium barium niobate to record spatially phase shifted real time holograms with high diffraction efficiency is the …
We demonstrate experimentally wavelength tuning of second-harmonic generation in waveguides induced by photorefractive solitons in a KNbO3 crystal. By rotating the crystal …

We report the observation of high-intensity solitons in a bulk strontium barium niobate crystal. The solitons are observed by use of 8-ns optical pulses with optical intensities …
This book, intended for students, researchers and engineers, is a collection of classic papers on photorefractive nonlinear optics. Included are landmark papers on fundamental …
