Abstract. In several oxide crystals the refractive index can be changed by inhomogeneous
illumination, and these photorefractive properties have allowed for a wide variety of …

The ability of photorefractive crystals such as barium titanate and strontium barium niobate
to record spatially phase shifted real time holograms with high diffraction efficiency is the …

This book describes the processes of optical information recording in photorefractive crystals
and applications of these materials in phase-conjugating devices, holographic …

Photorefractive crystals such as BaTiO 3, Sr x Ba 1− x Nb 2 O 6 (SBN), and Bi 12 SiO 20
(BSO) are by far the most efficient media for the generation of phase-conjugated optical …

The photorefractive effect (''optical damage'') severely limits the application of LiNbO3 in
visible wavelengths. We have found that proton exchanged LiNbO3, in which up to 70% of …

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

A laser beam propagating in a photorefractive crystal generates a refractive-index profile
that deflects the beam to one side. This nonlinear deflection can be balanced by total …

Nb x O 3 (, KTN), Sr 1-x Ba x Nb 2 O 6 (, SBN) and Bi 12 (Si, Ti, Ge) O 20 (BSO, BTO, BGO) …

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 …

Measurement of optical absorption loss and photorefractive sensitivity (optically induced
index changes) in Ti-diffused waveguides and bulk Ti-doped single crystals are reported …
