Abstract
We present a dynamic Schlieren system that uses optical phase conjugat ion in a photorefractive crystal. The theoretical description of the s ystem predicts that the square of the phase change in an object field is mapped as the intensity modulation in the system output. This is de monstrated experimentally with a He-Cd laser and a BaTiO3 CryStal arra nged in the self-pumped phase-conjugator configuration.
