Abstract

Considerable improvement of a transient two-beam coupling gain is reported for Sn(2)P(2)S(6), a photorefractive crystal that possesses two types of movable charge carrier. A gain enhancement occurs if the phase difference of the interacting beams is abruptly changed to pi. Enhancement is also achieved with periodic phase variations of zero and pi between two discrete states at modulation frequencies lower than the smallest of two reciprocal characteristic times of the space-charge formation.
