Vectorial solution to the photorefractive band transport model in the spatial and temporal Fourier transformed domain

摘要

The frequency dependence of the photorefractive effect is considered. The frequencies can be applied by introducing a temporal phase shift in one of the beams in a two-wave mixing configuration. The analysis of the Kukhtarev equations is based on the small modulation approximation, but in contrast to earlier papers, no a priori approximations are made. The analysis results in a second-order model with an explicit dependence on both the grating spacing and the temporal grating frequency. Curves for the modulus and the imaginary part of the space-charge field are obtained, and it is concluded that, for small fringe spacings, the second-order model presented provides important information on the photorefractive effect.
