Abstract
Holographic scattering processes in photorefractive KTa1-xNbxO3 (KTN) cryst als are investigated resulting from the simultaneous action of one or two p ump beams. Different scattering patterns are observed on a screen behind th e crystal. A comparison between the intensity distribution of the scattered light and the consequences of certain phase-matching conditions permits th e identification of the processes involved.
