Filtering of dynamic distortions in systems with a finite-response time photorefractive nonlinearity

Abstract

An effective numerical method for the solution of problems modelling the dynamics of a nonlinear interaction of a photorefractive crystal is developed and tested. The criterion of strongest suppression of dynamic phase distortions is used to optimise a system with two-beam energy exchange in InP:Fe.

Suppression of dynamic distortions by four-wave mixing in a photorefractive crystal

Victor A. Vysloukh, V. I. Kutuzov, В. А. Шувалов

A numerical simulation is reported of a one-pass system for suppression of dynamic distortions, which is based on four-wave mixing of optical fields in photorefractive crystals. A study is made of the reaction of such a system to various types of noise and it is shown that the system efficiency can be enhanced significantly by mixing an additional coherent field to a distorted signal.

Photorefractive wave mixing with finite beams

Wieslaw Z. Krolikowski, Mark Cronin‐Golomb

While the interaction of optical beams in photorefractive crystals can often be accurately described in terms of 1-D plane-wave approximation, 2-D models are sometimes more suitable, as suggested by recent work.1 Here we discuss some aspects of photorefractive interaction of finite size optical beams. We have solved the system of partial differential equations governing two- and four-wave mixing numerically by using iterative procedures. Simulations of beam amplification in two-beam coupling show strong beam deformation even without any spatial information imposed on them. Spatially nonuniform energy transfer is responsible for this effect. The pump beam loses energy during propagation and at the end of its passage through the beam intersection region (which was completely inside the crystal) it is strongly depleted and cannot contribute significantly to beam amplification. As the pump beam crosses through the probe, it amplifies most strongly that side of the probe that it meets first. By the time the pump has reached the far side of the probe, it is strongly depleted and less effective at probe amplification. In the case of phase conjugation through four-wave mixing, we found that the conjugate beam is strongly deformed only when the coupling constant is negative (corresponding to deamplification of the probe input beam). For positive coupling constants the output conjugate beam is a good replica of the input probe beam.

Transient picosecond response of the photorefractive effect in InP:Fe

Hongwei Mao, Ximing Deng, Fuming Li

The time lag of the crossed-polarized part of the transmitted probe pulse, which is due to photorefractive energy transfer from the pump pulse, is measured with respect to the original transmitted probe pulse. The average photorefractive response time of the crystal is estimated through theoretical analysis.

Mulitigrating optical phase conjugation with considerations of phase effects

Ping Xie, Jian-Hua Dai, Zhang Hong-jun

We develop a numerical method to solve the coupled-wave equations for four-wave mixing phase conjugation in a photorefractive crystal with unequal complex coupling constants; by this method we can obtain both the intensities and the phases of various beams. We discuss the intensities and the phases of the interacting beams in a photorefractive crystal for the cases in which the phase shifts between the refractive-index gratings and the interference pattern are all π/2 and in which they are not all π/2.

Energy exchange under conditions of a two-beam interaction in a photorefractive medium

A. A. Esaian, A. A. Zozulya, Vladimir T Tikhonchuk

A two-dimensional theory of the interaction of two optical beams in a photorefractive medium is formulated. Beams having planar and parabolic intensity distributions are used to analyze the laws governing energy exchange and distortion of the beam profile during the interaction process. It is shown that an allowance for two-dimensional effects gives rise to new quantitative and qualitative results compared with the known one-dimensional theory.
