Refractive index grating recording is achieved in the infrared in a nematic liquid crystal
placed between semiconductor CdTe substrates. Light-induced space-charge field created …

Electroholography is a wavelength-selective optical switching method based on governing
of the reconstruction process of volume holograms by means of an electric field …

The physical properties of a hologram written in a photorefractive polymer composite are
predicted from a macroscopic model based on ellipsometry. An electric poling field …

We describe a photodetector array based on photoconductance-monitoring by four-point
probing. This detection scheme is aimed specifically at detecting changes within a speckle …

The temporal dynamics of photorefractive and absorptive gains during two-wave mixing in
Stark geometry photorefractive quantum wells are investigated using moving gratings to …

Due to inherent complexity of some photorefractive effects, one must often resort to
numerical methods to describe them with some degree of realism. This is especially true …
