The photorefractive effect in lithium niobate and its applications

In iron-doped lithium niobate and other similar crystals, exposure to light of appropriate wavelength induces small changes in the refractive index. This phenomenon is called the photorefractive effect. It allows phase holograms to be stored in these crystals. The work to be described was undertaken...
