“…The influence of the piezoelectric effect and photoelasticity on the properties of transmission holograms in cubic photorefractive crystals of (111)-cut was studied theoretically and experimentally for the first time by Shepelevich et al [114]. This research area was then further developed [115][116][117][118][119]. The results of these studies can be summarized as follows:…”

535.4:548The evolution of the theoretical and experimental background for a photorefractive effect in cubic gyrotropic piezocrystals is reviewed. It is shown that the impact of the inverse piezoelectric effect and the photoelasticity on the formation and properties of holograms recorded in such crystals is not reduced to minor quantitative variations in their output characteristics but gives rise to qualitative changes both in the orientation and polarization dependences of the hologram diffraction efficiency and in the gain of an object wave at the expense of a reference one. Contributions of various scientific optical schools to the development of theoretical and experimental investigations on the photorefractive effect in cubic piezoelectric crystals are acknowledged and the importance of the experimental results is demonstrated. Particular emphasis is placed on ways to optimize the output characteristics of holograms recorded in cubic gyrotropic photorefractive piezocrystals. Among these are the choice of crystal cut, the selection of the crystal orientation, and the polarization of the light waves.

We investigate here both theoretically and experimentally light-induced scattering in (111)-cut Bi12TiO20 crystals with an external ac field. Our simple analytic solution, which is nearly as precise as the numeric one, allows us to recognize the following otherwise hidden general features. Without the elasto-optic contribution, the scattering patterns are identical for the same value of xi=zeta(0)+(2/3)straight phi(p), where straight phi(p) is the initial polarization angle and zeta(0) is the angle of the external field. With the elasto-optic contribution, the scattering patterns for the same xi are still very similar. For xi not equal0, the scattering patterns depend differently on the elasto-optic coefficients p(12) and p(13) so that in principle p(12) and p(13) can be measured by purely holographic experiments. On the experimental side, we present scattering patterns for xi=0 and +/-30 degrees, showing thereby the similarity of the scattering patterns for equal values of xi. In all cases, we obtain good qualitative agreement of our analytic and numeric calculations with the experimental findings.
