Book Description

November 13, 2003 3540021094 978-3540021094 1
Overview of current developments in nonlinear photorefractive optics. The book dicusses exciting discoveries, with special emphasis on transverse effects such as spatial soliton formation and interaction, spontaneous pattern formation and pattern competition in active feedback systems. Different aspects of potential applications, such as wave guiding in adaptive photorefractive solitons and techniques for pattern control for information processing, are also described.

Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

The book gives an overview of actual developments in nonlinear photorefractive optics and is intended for scientists working in the field of optics or nonlinear physics. It is meant as an introduction to actual exciting discoveries in this area, with special emphasize on transverse effects such as spatial soliton formation and interaction, spontaneous pattern formation, and pattern competition in active feedback systems. In all these areas, different aspects of potential applications, such as wave guiding in adaptive photorefractive solitons and techniques for pattern control for information processing, are described. Experimental realizations demonstrate the variety of photorefractive patterns, and different two-dimensional simulations prove the experimental observations.

First Sentence:
The propagation of a light beam through a nonlinear medium is the simplest scenario that one could imagine for light-matter interaction, but it is accompanied by a series of dramatic and fascinating changes in the spatio-temporal structure of the beam. Read the first page
