Fixing of photorefractive volume holograms in K(1-y)Li(y)Ta(1-x)O(3).

چکیده
We report the fixing of photorefractive holographic gratings with high efficiency in a sample of K(1-y)Li(y)Ta(1-x)Nb(x)O(3) doped with Cu, V, and Ti. Holograms are thermally fixed through the screening of a photorefractive space-charge f ield by a nonphotoactive species at elevated temperatures. Fixed holograms are revealed by illumination at lower temperatures. Diffraction efficiencies of 25% in a 0.54-cm-thick sample are measured. Holograms undergo thermal decay with a 0.67-eV activation energy.

Selective page-addressable fixing of volume holograms in Sr(0.75)Ba(0.25)Nb(2)O(6) crystals.
We demonstrate selective fixing of volume holograms in photorefractive media. Each holographic page may be fixed individually and overwritten without destroying the other fixed pages. We present experimental results describing this process in Cr-doped Sr(0.75)Ba(0.25)Nb(2)O(6) at room temperature, with hologram lifetimes exceeding 100 days during continuous readout with an intense beam (1 W/cm(...

Volume holograms recorded in photorefractive materials can find important applications in optical memories and optical computing systems. One problem with a photorefractive hologram is that it gets erased by the readout light. Nondestructive readout can be achieved by hologram fixing, and several fixing methods have been reported. Thermal fixing of holograms was demonstrated in LiNbO3,' Bi1 2Si...
متن کاملOptical restoration of photorefractive holograms through self-enhanced diffraction.
For the first time to our knowledge, we demonstrate the use of self-enhanced diffraction to optically restore weak dynamic volume holograms. This restoration process is achieved through the use of a novel beam-toggling scheme that significantly enhances the steady-state diffraction efficiency of volume index gratings stored in photorefractive media. Experiments demonstrating and confirming theo...

متن کاملOptimal conditions for thermal fixing of volume holograms in Fe:LiNbO3 crystals.
We analyze and compare two typical recording and thermal fixing procedures of a volume hologram in a Fe:LiNbO(3) crystal (low-high-low procedure and high-low procedure). We consider the kinetics of the recording, compensating, and developing processes by taking into account the ratio of the conductivities between the protons and the electrons as a function of temperature. From the analysis the ...
