Photorefractive Receiver Study
Abstract
The Photorefractive Receiver Study was a 12 month study into concepts related to the application of photorefractive materials as adaptive beam combining elements for an optical heterodyne receiver. This study concentrates on the behavior of and requirements for the photorefractive element. A set of parameters and approaches for the photorefractive element was selected and a theoretical model constructed to predict performance. An experiment was designed and fabricated to illustrate the dependencies predicted by the theoretical model. All model and experimental results are described and summarized.
