Abstract
In this paper we discuss the possibility for realizing an optical memory us
ing dynamic refreshment. Using phase-correct back coupling by means of nonl
inear optical phase conjugation the information stored in a photorefractive
crystal is continuously read out, transmitted into an auxiliary memory and
from this back into the crystal again and is, in this way, refreshed. Prac
tical realizations and first results are presented.
