Abstract
Two semiconductor single-mode waveguides have been fabricated to study the photorefractive effect in epilayers grown on an InP:Fe substrate. The first experimental results obtained in these structures are repor ted. At 1.55-mu m wavelength, a 0.53-cm(-1) gain is observed in contra directional two-wave mixing and a 4-cm(-1) gain is measured in codirec tional two-wave mixing with a 5.7-kV/cm applied field. The gain depend ence versus the Light intensity and the applied field is also discusse d. (C) 1995 Optical Society of America.
