Increase of light-beam coherence by two-wave mixing in photorefractive crystals

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We demonstrate that two-wave mixing of partially coherent light beams inside a medium with an inertial nonlinear response allows one to increase the coherence substantially. An increase of the coherence function from 0.24 to 0.94 is demonstrated experimentally in SBN:Ce crystal.
