Phase Conjugate Optics and Picosecond Optoelectronics.

Abstract

Large Coupling coefficient (>10/cm) photorefractive crystals have been developed. The infrared response and the temperature dependence of these crystals have been studied. The applications of these crystals such as image subtraction, wavefront conversion and bistable oscillations have been developed. The ultimate bandwidth limitations of the self-pumped phase conjugate mirror have been investigated. High speed detectors for use at the 1.3 micrometers region have been developed. During this reporting period we have been conducting research on properties of photorefractive crystals and their applications, and the phase conjugation of picosecond light pulses. Keywords: Phase conjugate optics; Picosecond optoelectronics.
