A. Kewitsch et al., CONTROLLED, PERIODIC DOMAIN FORMATION IN STRONTIUM BARIUM NIOBATE INDUCED BY VOLUME HOLOGRAMS, JPN J A P 1, 32(11B), 1993, pp. 5445-5446
We demonstrate an all-optical technique of controlled, periodic ferroe
lectric domain reversal induced by electronic space charge fields asso
ciated with photorefractive volume holograms. This technique may be us
ed to selectively fix and update individual holograms in photorefracti
ve crystals.
