Photorefractive materials have been assuming ever increasing prominence in the non-linear
optics field due to their unique capability for displaying strong non-linear effects at milliwatt …

The response of photorefractive materials to sinusoidal intensity patterns of high modulation
depths is considered. It is shown that the induced refractive-index response in this regime is …

This is the first volume of a set of three within the Springer Series in Optical Sciences, and is
devoted to photorefractive effects, photorefractive materials, and their applications. Since the …

A well-defined ring of anisotropically scattered light is observed when a linearly polarized
laser beam is incident upon a birefringent photorefractive crystal such as BaTiO_3 …

Light-induced charge transport processes are essential for photorefractive effects in
electrooptic crystals. Charge driving forces, charge transport models and experimental …

Recent developments, both theoretical and experimental, involving the nonlinear
interactions of light in photorefractive crystals are reviewed. When pumped by light beams in …

When Arthur Ashkin and his colleagues at Bell Laboratories first noticed the photorefrac tive
effect some 25 years ago, they con sidered the phenomenon a curiosity at best and a …

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 …

In an extension of earlier work by Moharam et al.[J. Appl. Phys. 50, 5642 (1979)], we use a
perturbation scheme to obtain a higher-order expression for the steady-state photorefractive …
