Abstract

The dynamic refractive-index-change behavior of the light-induced process in an Mn:Fe:KTN crystal illuminated by a focused light sheet can be observed experimentally by digital holographic interferometry. By numerically retrieving a series of sequential phase maps from recording digital holograms, the spatial and temporal evolution of the light-induced refractive-index-change distribution inside the material is visualized in situ and monitored in a quantitative and in full field way. With this technique, the effect of recording parameters, such as writing laser power and polarization, bias voltage, temperature, and writing time, on the Mn:Fe:KTN crystal in the photorefractive effect can be explored. Therefore, optimized recording parameters will be achieved according to the dynamic behavior. The method provides an access to explore the evolution of the photorefractive (PR) effect of electrooptic crystal under various situations.
