He. Zhao et al., Control of the photorefractive two-wave mixing in LiNbO3 : Fe and LiNbO3 :Fe : In with an incoherent background beam, ACT PHY C E, 50(11), 2001, pp. 2149-2154
We have analysed the results of the photorefractive two-wave mixing in LiNb
O3:Fe and LiNbO3:Fe:In controlled by an incoherent beam, and performed rela
ted experiments. Experimental results showed that the incoherent beam can e
ffectively control the photorefractive two-wave coupling gain in a large ra
nge, suppress the fanning effect, increase the signal-to-noise ratio, and s
horten the setup time of the two-wave mixing grating.
