Abstract: | A holographic double-exposure interferometer for quasi real-time analysis is realized, utilizing a photorefractive BTO:Cd
crystal for hologram recording. Heating of the crystal reduces the time required to reach the steady-state working situation.
Light-induced absorption losses are reduced by heating as well. Additionally, the diffraction efficiency is increased by this
method. A sixfold increase in the light intensity of the reconstructed interferogram is achieved.
