Ellipsometric investigation of the mechanism of hologram storage in lithium niobate

A computer-controlled ellipsometer was used to obtain data on the birefringence changes induced in lithium niobate crystals by irradiation with an argon-ion laser. The instrument was set to take readings on a rectangular grid of points before and after irradiation. Irradiation was performed with ci...
