1. Photorefractive optics : materials, properties, and applications

   San Diego : Academic, c2000.

   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. It: covers the recent development in materials, phenomena, and applications; includes growth, characterization, dynamic gratings, and liquid crystal PR effect; contains applications to photonic devices such as large capacity optical memory, 3-D interconnections, and dynamic holograms; provides the recent overall picture of current trends in photorefractive optics; and, includes optical and electronic properties of the materials as applied to dynamic photorefractive fiber.

3. Transverse-pattern formation in photorefractive optics

   Denz, Cornelia

   New York : Springer, 2003.

   Of interest to scientists working in the field of optics or nonlinear physics, this book gives an overview of current developments in nonlinear photorefractive optics. It dicusses exciting discoveries, with special emphasis on transverse effects such as spatial soliton formation and interaction, spontaneous pattern formation and pattern competition in active feedback systems. Different aspects of potential applications, such as wave guiding in adaptive photorefractive solitons and techniques for pattern control for information processing, are also described. The author Professor Denz received the Lise Meitner Prize in 1993 for her dissertation on photorefractive neural networks and in 1999 the Adolf Messer Prize for the development of an optical motion detection filter.
