Various techniques to characterize the nonlinear (NL) optical response of centro-symmetric
materials are presented and evaluated with emphasis on the relationship between the …

The main suggestions in practical applications of dynamic photorefractive holographic
recording for interferometry, processing of 2D pictures, operations with laser beams, and …

Ferroelectric materials, in addition to possessing the unique property of a reversible,
spontaneous polarization, exhibit a range of other significant and useful properties. These …

The latest edition of the leading resource on the properties and applications of liquid crystals
In the newly revised Third Edition of Liquid Crystals, Professor Iam Choon Khoo delivers a …

We show that photorefractive media can support a new type of spatial soliton, in which the
diffraction is balanced by the self-scattering (two-wave mixing) of the beam spatial frequency …

We demonstrate for the first time to our knowledge a digital phase conjugation technique for
generating a sharp focus point at the end of a multimode optical fiber. A sharp focus with a …

Photorefractive materials combine photoconductive and electro-optic properties: light affects
their electrical conductivity; their optical properties (refractive index, etc.) are affected by …

We describe two-beam coupling and temporal encoding experiments in barium titanate.
Volume gratings are created in the photorefractive material by 50-fs optical pulses …

We report on the operation of the double phase-conjugate mirror (DPCM). Two inputs to
opposite sides of a photorefractive barium titanate crystal, which may carry different spatial …
