Polarization properties of fanning light in fiberlike bismuth titanium oxide crystals

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We demonstrate that the fanning light emerging from an optically active fiberlike bismuth titanium oxide (Bi12TiO20) crystal is linearly polarized either parallel to the applied electric-field vector or perpendicular to it, independently of the external ac electric field, the crystal length, and the pump beam polarization state. We show also that a photorefractive surface wave can be generated at the opposite crystal sides, depending on the pump beam polarization.
