M. Kaczmarek et al., INTENSITY-DEPENDENT ABSORPTION AND ITS MODELING IN INFRARED-SENSITIVERHODIUM-DOPED BATIO3, Optics communications, 126(1-3), 1996, pp. 175-184
We investigate the intensity-dependent absorption coefficient of photo
refractive Rh:BaTiO3 from the maximum (633 nm) to the near infra-red e
nd (1.06 mu m) of this crystal's sensitivity. A numerical photorefract
ive model, incorporating dual-wavelength illumination and a secondary
photorefractive centre, gives good agreement with experiment and shows
that such a two-centre model is sufficient to explain the results obt
ained in the visible and infrared wavelength region.
