Abstract

The coupled system including wave mixing and nonlinear dynamics of a nonlocal optical medium is usually studied (1) numerically, with the medium being regarded as a black box, or (2) experimentally, making use of some empirical assumptions. In this paper we deduce for the first time a single evolution equation describing the dynamics of the pairing system as a holistic complex. For a non-degenerate set of parameters, we obtain the nonlinear Schrödinger equation with coefficients being written out explicitly. Analytical solutions of this equation can be experimentally realized in any photorefractive medium, e.g. in photorefractive, liquid or photonic crystals. For instance, a soliton-like solution can be used in dynamical holography for designing an artificial grating with maximal amplification of an image.
