Self-pumped phase conjugation in InP:Fe using band-edge resonance and temperature stabilization : theory and experiments

Data showing nonlinear resonantly enhanced photorefractive response at high modulation depths in InP:Fe are presented. A simple empirical model is used to describe the behavior. Next the impact of these large-signal effects, as well as linear absorption, on the self-pumped phase-conjugate mirror is...

Description
Summary:Data showing nonlinear resonantly enhanced photorefractive response at high modulation depths in InP:Fe are presented. A simple empirical model is used to describe the behavior. Next the impact of these large-signal effects, as well as linear absorption, on the self-pumped phase-conjugate mirror is examined. Predicted performance is compared to actual measurements of a ring self-pumped phase-conjugate mirror using InP. The performance of the double-pumped phase-conjugate mirror is also examined experimentally and compared with the performance of the ring mirror. (Author)
