Using the special structure of the electro-optic tensor of the crystals of the sillenite family,
Stepanov et al.[Opt. Acta31, 1335 (1984)] suggested a new degenerate four-wave mixing …

A generalized systematic description of the Two-Wave Mixing (TWM) process in sillenite
crystals allowing for arbitrary orientation of the grating vector is presented. An analytical …

We show theoretically and experimentally that switching an applied square-wave field
produces strong and short pulses of the outgoing signal during two-wave mixing in sillenite …

An investigation of holographic recording in the counterpropagating geometry of two-wave
mixing experiments for crystals of the sillenite-group is presented. Three identical samples of …

Simple analytical expressions for the dependence of the maximum gain on the polarization
angle of the interacting light waves and the crystal thickness are obtained for two-wave …

The counter mixing of a strong circularly polarized wave of optical pump with a weak phase-
modulated signal wave on the reflection grating formed by them in (111)-,(110)-, and (100) …

We present investigations of the etalon effect in sillenite photorefractive crystals with a
pulsed frequency-doubled Nd: YAG laser and show its influence on two-and four-wave …

Reflectivity of phase-conjugate wave generated by degenerate four-wave mixing in a Bi 12
SiO 20 crystal is explicitly represented in terms of an arbitrary incident polarization …

The coupled-wave theory is extended to analyze the two-wave mixing interaction under an
alternating electric field in a sillenite crystal. Within the undepleted pump beam …

We present a technology of a growing of pure and doped sillenite crystals and the results of
a study of two-beam mixing in these crystals at wavelength (lambda) equals 633 nm. We …
