R. Birabassov et Tv. Galstian, Analysis of the recording and reconstruction of the polarization state of light, J OPT SOC B, 18(10), 2001, pp. 1423-1427
A simple theoretical model is developed that describes the recording and re
construction of the polarization state of light in photoanisotropic materia
ls through the use of a plane-polarized reference beam. The bipolar respons
e of the medium to photoexcitation allows the recording of holograms with u
seful polarization discrimination properties. (C) 2001 Optical Society of A
