Mutual phase conjugation of temporally nonoverlapping optical beams

Abstract

It was demonstrated that holographic gratings could be formed by temporally nonoverlapping optical beams. Effects involving coherent erasure by an individual pulse must be small to achieve efficient grating formation.

Phase conjugation involving incoherent counterpropagating beams in photorefractive media

Mordechai Segev, Amnon Yariv

We propose and analyze a new type of phase conjugation between counterpropagating beams in photorefractive materials based on diffraction from transmission gratings only. This effect does not require temporal coherence between the counterpropagating beams and may occur spontaneously, with no external seeding, even with wide (frequency) band light sources.

Parametric Investigation of Holographic Gratings and Optical Phase Conjugation Through Degenerate Four Wave Mixing in Saturable Absorptive/Resonant/Nonresonant Systems

Putcha Venkateswarlu

Parametric investigation of volume holographic gratings and optical phase conjugation are studied through coherent and incoherent beam couplings in barium titanate BaTiO(3) and through the study of bistability in phase conjugate resonators. Experiments have been done on the effect of color centers in the formation of resonant systems and holographic grating formation. A summary of the important results appears in the final report.

Four-wave mixing with partially coherent waves in photorefractive mediaITransmission grating approximation

We investigate the effect of beam temporal coherence on four-wave mixing via transmission gratings in photorefractive media. We take into account the propagation of mutual coherence and self-coherence in space and the evolution of mutual coherence and self-coherence with time. Analytical solutions for nondepleted-pump cases and numerical results for general cases are obtained. We find that the mutual coherence of the signal beam and the pump beam can be enhanced or reduced, depending on the coupling constant and the beam ratio of the signal beam and the pump beam. A decrease of the initial mutual coherence can lead to a lower phase-conjugate reflectivity in the nondepleted-pump case. Even with low initial mutual coherence, high phase-conjugate reflectivity can still be obtained in the case with pump depletion. As a result of the shift of the grating profile, partial coherence can lead to an enhancement of the phase-conjugate reflectivity when the signal–pump-beam ratio is small. We also found that when the initial value of the phase-conjugate beam is zero, the phase-conjugate beam and the pump beam are in phase during propagation. Results for beam intensity and mutual coherence are presented and discussed to provide an insight into four-wave mixing with partially temporally coherent waves.
