Screening Solitons

We relate on a series of optical nonlinear propagation phenomena, mediated by photorefraction, present in ferroelectric crystals heated above the Curie point, in proximity of the critical regime. In particular, we discuss centrosymmetric screening solitons, diffusion-driven anisotropic nonlinear diffraction, ellipticity locking, diffusion-driven solitons, and spatial beam head-on collisions.

The concept of optical wavefront reversing as a tool for phase aberration correction is reviewed. Presenting the fundamental and basic nature of the nonlinear interaction of light with matter leading to optical phase conjugation, a theoretical description of the photorefractive effect is given with a special emphasis on the gain of a coupling experiment and the speed of the photorefractive effect. Optical phase conjugation configurations, designs, and enhancement techniques are described and summarized comparing the possibilities and disadvantages regarding specific applications in the near infrared.
