Abstract

Externally applied fields play crucial role in the enhancement of space charge electric field (Esc) in photorefractive (PR) materials. Using band-charge transport model, Esc (~105V/m) is obtained in presence of externally applied dc electric (E0) and magnetic (B0) fields simultaneously. Numerical estimation of GaAs:Cr shows that in presence of externally applied fields (optimum value of E0 = 5 × 102 V/m and B0 = 640 gauss), diffraction efficiency ~90% can be observed. To further elaborate the above result, a typical behavior of recording and erasure of hologram with respect to time has been investigated. Result manifest that GaAs:Cr is efficient, ultrafast writing and erasing media for PR-grating.
