Nonreciprocal optical transmission through photorefractive KNbO3:Mn

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Asymmetric light transmission of up to 113 and 59% for two antiparallel beam directions has been measured in photorefractive KNbO3:Mn. The wavelength dependence of the transmission asymmetry and the intensity dependence of the time constants for recording the photoinduced reflection gratings causing the asymmetry are reported. An optimized crystal orientation gives an increased light-transmission asymmetry of up to 25% for a 2.9-mm-long crystal.
