Multiple scattering of elliptically polarized light in two-dimensional medium with large inhomogeneities

For elliptically polarized light incident on a two-dimensional medium with large inhomogeneities, the Stokes parameters of scattered waves are calculated. Multiple scattering is assumed to be sharply anisotropic. The degree of polarization of scattered radiation is shown to be a nonmonotonic function of depth when the incident wave is circularly polarized or its polarization vector is not parallel to the symmetry axis of the inhomogeneities.

A simple computational method for internal polarized radiation fields of finite slab atmospheres

An extended doubling method is formulated, which provides together with the emergent radiation also the internal polarized radiation field without additional iterations. Two sets of linear regular integral relations are derived, which have to be fulfilled by the surface Green's function matrix or, equivalently, by the Stokes vector of the slab albedo problem radiation field. The integral relations refer to the half range angular variable of the direction of incidence and to the full range angular variable of the direction of light propagation, respectively.     

Cascaded compression of the first and second Stokes pulses during forward transient stimulated Raman amplification

The results of numerical modelling of cascaded compression of the first and second Stokes pulses during regenerative regime of the forward transient stimulated Raman amplification are presented for the case when the walk-off length of the first Stokes pulse due to group velocity mismatch is shorter than the length of the nonlinear medium. The influence of the initial amplitudes of the seed first Stokes pulses, its durations and its time delay with respect to the pump pulse, the Kerr nonlinearity of the medium on the conversion efficiency, duration and propagation factor M² of the first and second Stokes pulse are studied. It is demonstrated that for the pump pulse duration of 1 ps the duration of the compressed second Stokes pulses in a KGW crystal near the beam axis may be approximately 14 times shorter than the pump pulse duration. It is shown that the propagation factor of the compressed pulses increases significantly because of complex spatial-temporal dynamics of compression and the influence of Kerr nonlinearity of Raman medium.

Photoinduced changes in the space-modulated magnetic order of a FeBO<Subscript>3</Subscript>:Mg single crystal

An effect of nonpolarized white light on the modulated magnetic structure of a FeBO₃:Mg single crystal, which arises in this light-plane weak ferromagnet in the low temperature range during technical magnetization, has been revealed. It has been found that the degree of the light action on the magnetic state of FeBO₃:Mg depends both on its duration and on the orientation of the spontaneous magnetization vector M of the crystal during illumination. Interpretation of the results obtained has been performed in the context of the “magnetic ripple” theory on the assumption that the absorbed light induces additional uniaxial magnetic anisotropy in the easy plane of the crystal and that the anisotropy axis is collinear to the vector M during illumination.

Structure of elastic and electric fields induced near the boundary of a LiNbO3 crystal in the course of recording of photorefractive gratings through the photovoltaic mechanism

This paper reports on the results of the investigation into the structure of elastic and electric fields induced near the boundary of the X cut of a lithium niobate crystal during the formation of a photorefractive grating with a wave vector K parallel to the threefold symmetry axis due to the photovoltaic effect. The elastic and electric fields induced by the photorefractive grating and the changes in the components of the dielectric impermeability tensor of the lithium niobate crystal at the frequency of the light wave are calculated using numerical analysis. It is demonstrated that light waves with orthogonal polarizations can effectively interact at a photorefractive grating formed near the electrically short-circuited boundary of a lithium niobate crystal.
