The complete basic equations for 2+ 1-dimensional self-trapped beam propagation in
photorefractive media are numerically solved, with the anisotropic nonlocal response …

We show analytically and numerically that the refractive-index gratings produced by the
photorefractive effect need not be of the same periodicity as the driving light intensity. Even …

This is the first of two volumes that review, for the first time, all major aspects of
photorefractive effects and their applications. Photorefractive effects in electro-optic crystals …

An analytical model, which describes the drift and diffusion mechanisms for the formation of
the nonlinear response (local and nonlocal nonlinearities) of photorefractive crystals on the …

Consistent experimental and numerical simulation studies of the propagation of a one-
dimensional Gaussian beam in optically active BSO crystal in the presence of an alternating …

An amplification mechanism relying mainly on the real part of the arising space charge field
in the presence of two strong pump beams is described. The dependence of amplification on …

Based on the calculation of the electrostatic field potential of space charges, we have
analysed the characteristic features of light-induced scattering of extraordinary polarised …

A simple polarization technique for separate measurement of absorption and phase gratings
in photorefractive crystals, that allowed us to demonstrate experimental evidence of …

On the basis of the standard model for the photorefractive nonlinearity we investigate
whether a systematic description of the dependence of two-beam energy exchange on …

In this chapter, the standard model accounting for the photorefractive nonlinearity in a
material is presented. The mathematical formalism of the rate equations has been …
