Download or read book The Physics and Applications of Photorefractive Materials written by L. Solymar and published by Clarendon Press. This book was released on 1996-08-15 with total page 510 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Photorefractive materials combine photoconductive and electro-optic properties: light affects their electrical conductivity; their optical properties (refractive index, etc.) are affected by applied electric fields. The aim of this book is to cover the vast range of phenomena occurring in Photorefractive Materials. For Physicists it is part of the fashionable subject of Nonlinear Optics. Engineers tend to place it as part of optoelectronics promising a variety of new devices. This book summarizes the results of 28 years of research in a manner that would appeal both to the beginner (a graduate student who has just entered the field) and to the expert (who might have done research on some aspect of the subject for a decade or more). It is in three parts. Part I serves as an introduction with emphasis on physical principles and simple mathematical models. Part II is a comprehensive account of all the major advances. Its main merit is the organization of the material accompanied by a detailed list of references. Part III is concerned with the enormous range of potential applications.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Applications and properties of nonlinear optical materials were studied, especially photorefractive crystals. A summary includes: (1) Demonstration of a new technique for seeing an object buried in or behind a scattering medium using time-resolved holography in a spectral hole-burning material. (2) Demonstration of an all-optical switchboard using stimulated, mutually-pumped phase conjugation in a photorefractive crystal. (3) Use of optical novelty filters to detect small changes in an optical scene. (4) Invention of an electric field correlator to measure the coherence length of picosecond laser pulses, using two-wave mixing in a photorefractive crystal. (5) Derivation of a theory of beam coupling and pulse shaping picosecond light pulses in photorefractive crystals. (6) Development of a new, multiple level model to explain the nonlinear photoconductivity of barium titanate crystals. (7) Investigation of the role of absorption gratings in beam coupling in barium titanate crystals and showing how these gratings can conveniently be used to determine the density of charge in these crystals. (8) Explanation of how stimulated processes cause the curved beam paths observed in mutually-pumped and self-pumped phase conjugators.

Book excerpt: The papers presented here reflect the core of the scientific activities that took place at the 1994 E-MRS conference. The contributions indicate that the field of photorefractive materials is advancing vigorously, moving into new classes of compounds, finding ways for the judicious tailoring of the microscopic properties of the materials - based on increased insight into the features of defects or quantum wells - and leading to new applications, often made possible by the advances at the forefront of the materials. The many papers presented by European participants emphasised the large amount of work being carried out here. Stimulating contributions also came from the United States and Japan, while papers presented by members from the industrial world indicate the importance of the field in this sector.

Download or read book Photorefractive Materials and Their Applications II written by Peter Günter and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-06-27 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the second of two volumes that review, for the first time, all major aspects of photorefractive effects and their applications. Photorefractive effects in electro-optic crystals are based on optically induced space-charge fields which ultimately alter the refractive indices by the electro-optic Pockels effect. The fundamental phenomena leading to photoinduced changes of refractive index, the materials requirements and experimental results on a variety of photorefractive materials are discussed and the most recent theoretical models describing these phenomena are presented. Interest in photorefractive materials has increased in recent years mainly because of their potential for nonlinear optical devices and for optical signals processing applications. Most of these applications are reviewed in this volume. The contributions to the two volumes are written by experts on each topic and are intended for scientists and engineers active in the field and for researchers and graduate students entering the field. Over 300 references to original papers on photorefractive and associated phenomena are cited. Volume 1 appeared as Volume 61 of Topics in Applied Physics.

Download or read book Nonlinear Optics in Semiconductors I written by and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 1998-10-22 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its inception in 1966, the series of numbered volumes known as Semiconductors and Semimetals has distinguished itself through the careful selection of well-known authors, editors, and contributors. The "Willardson and Beer" Series, as it is widely known, has succeeded in publishing numerous landmark volumes and chapters. Not only did many of these volumes make an impact at the time of their publication, but they continue to be well-cited years after their original release. Recently, Professor Eicke R. Weber of the University of California at Berkeley joined as a co-editor of the series. Professor Weber, a well-known expert in the field of semiconductor materials, will further contribute to continuing the series' tradition of publishing timely, highly relevant, and long-impacting volumes. Some of the recent volumes, such as Hydrogen in Semiconductors, Imperfections in III/V Materials, Epitaxial Microstructures, High-Speed Heterostructure Devices, Oxygen in Silicon, and others promise that this tradition will be maintained and even expanded.Reflecting the truly interdisciplinary nature of the field that the series covers, the volumes in Semiconductors and Semimetals have been and will continue to be of great interest to physicists, chemists, materials scientists, and device engineers in modern industry.
