Two-wave mixing of time-varying non-plane-wave optical fields in photorefractive materials

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

A theoretical analysis is presented of two-wave mixing in photorefractive materials in which the complex amplitude of a weak signal beam has slowly varying but otherwise arbitrary spatial dependence and arbitrary time variation. The set of coupled partial differential equations that couple the dynamics of the optical fields to the photorefractive medium is solved analytically to give the complex amplitude of the transmitted signal in the undepleted pump regime. The results are compared with known results for the transient two-wave mixing of plane waves.
