Summary

A reference both for technical and non-technical staffs who are interested in photorefractive optics. This book covers the development in materials, phenomena, and applications; includes growth, characterization, dynamic gratings, and liquid crystal PR effect; and provides the overall picture of trends in photorefractive optics.

Photorefractive Optics Summary

Photorefractive Optics: Materials, Properties, and Applications by Francis T.S. Yu (The Pennsylvania State University, University Park, U.S.A.)

The advances of photorefractive optics have demonstrated many useful and practical applications, which include the development of photorefractive optic devices for computer communication needs. To name a couple significant applications: the large capacity optical memory, which can greatly improve the accessible high-speed CD-ROM and the dynamic photorefractive gratings, which can be used for all-optic switches for high-speed fiber optic networks. This book is an important reference both for technical and non-technical staffs who are interested in this field. Sixteen chapters present the fundamental aspects and the recent advances of photorefractive optics, particularly potential applications in the area of informational infrastructures. The volume begins with the standard photoreactive models, optical properties, wave mixing, hologram formation memories, three-dimensional data storage dynamic, interconnections, space-time processing, and application of photoreflective material to wavefront connection and to femtosecond lasers. The final chapter discusses the dynamic process of photoreflective fibers.Book News, Inc. (R), Portland, OR
