Abstract

The high sensitivity, fast response and the high quality reconstructions are observed in various [Li]/[Nb] ratios In:Fe:Cu:LiNbO 3 crystals at 488 nm wavelength based on the two-beam coupling experiment. The strong blue photorefraction is contributed by the two-center effect and the remarkable characteristic of being in phase between the two gratings recorded in shallow and deep trap centers. The blue photorefraction is enhanced significantly with the increasing of [Li]/[Nb] ratios under the same experimental conditions. The sensitivity S" is reduced to 0.46 J/cm, simultaneously the response time is as fast as 4.4 s and the erase phenomenon is not obvious in In:Fe:Cu:LiNbO 3 crystals which [Li]/[Nb] ratio is 0.986 in crystal. Increasing [Li]/[Nb] ratios improve the damage-resistant ability of the crystals, but lead to a more serious beam fanning. Experimental results definitely show that the near-stoichiometric In: Fe: Cu: LiNbO 3 crystal becomes a promising candidate for blue photorefractive holographic recording.
