光强变化对双中心非挥发光折变局域体光栅的影响

为研究局域体光栅的光折变形成机制及衍射特性,以双中心非挥发全息记录方案为基础,将带输运模型与二维耦合波理论相结合,采用数值模拟的方法.研究紫外敏化光强和记录红光总光强的变化对LiNbO3:Fe:Mn晶体中局域体光栅的影响,并给出定影结束时平均折射率调制、衍射光波振幅及衍射效率的模拟结果.研究发现:记录红光总光强不变时,平均折射率调制随紫外敏化光强增加而增加,而紫外敏化光强的改变对衍射波振幅的分布影响不大,衍射效率随紫外敏化光强度的增大先增大后减小,存在最佳紫外敏化光强,以获得80%以上的最高衍射效率.当紫外敏化光强不变时,随着记录红光总光强的增加,记录折射率光栅逐渐减弱,衍射波振幅分布变得越来越均匀.衍射效率逐渐降低.

Positive feedback effect in four-wave mixing in photorefractive crystals with absorption

Using a two-level model of optical transitions, the positive feedback effect observed in the presence of absorption in four-wave mixing in photorefractive crystals has been determined analytically. It is shown that with positive feedback, as the intensity of readout beam increases, the values of diffraction efficiency and intensity of amplified beam also increase. An analysis of the holographic grating amplitude shows that the effective thickness of the grating decreases in this case, but its amplitude increases. The dependences obtained, very important from the practical point of view, show that the optimal thickness of the crystal is different for diffraction efficiency and intensity of the amplified beam, and decreases with increasing readout beam intensity.     

Positive and negative feedback effects of four-wave mixing in photorefractive crystals with two active centres

Based on a two-level model of optical transitions, the problem of positive and negative feedback effects during simultaneous reading and writing of dynamic holograms in photorefractive crystals has been solved analytically. The diffraction efficiency and the gain coefficient are shown to be nonlinear functions of the readout beam intensity and are nonreciprocal with respect to the readout from the two input ports. The readout beam intensity value that affects a previously recorded grating is shown to depend on microscopic parameters such as the cross-section of photoionization, the recombination coefficient and the concentration of photorefractive centres. An analysis of the amplitude of the overall shared grating has shown that with increasing readout beam intensity the holographic grating thickness decreases. In this case, under negative feedback the grating amplitude decreases, while with positive feedback it increases. The possibility is shown of achieving (under positive feedback) a maximum value of diffraction efficiency and complete energy transfer in a finite thickness of the photorefractive crystal, in contrast to the infinite thickness required in the standard two-beam coupling case.     

Beam splitting, combining, and cross coupling through multiple superimposed volume-index gratings

We investigate the diffraction properties of multiple-superimposed index gratings from a vector synthetic viewpoint using coupled wave analysis with Bragg and non-Bragg readout. The vector synthetic gratings consist of two volume-index gratings with different grating wave vectors, which can be obtained in photorefractive materials, in optical fibers or in Bragg cells with two driving acoustic waves. This structure can realize beam splitting, beam combining, and beam cross coupling, etc. Analytic expressions for the diffraction efficiency as well as the amplitude of the waves involved are obtained. The results are presented and discussed.

Holographic Reflection Diffraction Gratings in Absorbent Photopolymer Media

Record and readout of holographic reflection gratings in absorbent photopolymer materials with a dye-sensitizer are theoretically investigated. An analytical model describing the spatiotemporal transformation of holographic grating field during record is constructed with allowance for the constant optical absorption and diffusion processes. It is demonstrated that the optical beam attenuation during record results in the spatial inhomogeneity of the grating profile and its growth kinetics. A degree of influence of the optical attenuation and contrast of interference pattern on the integral diffraction characteristics is evaluated based on numerical modeling.__________Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 3, pp. 62–70, March, 2005.
