Abstract

We present the measurement of the diffraction efficiency and response time of the photorefractive grating recorded in $LiNbO_3$ photorefractive crystal doped with 4%-mole MgO. Two laser sources were used in the experiments; frequency-doubled Q-switched Nd:YAG laser ($\lambda$=532 nm) and cw Ar-ion laser ($\lambda$=514.5 nm). The same optical geometry was also used in both experiments in order to maintain the experimental consistency. Using the two-wave mixing scheme in both experiments we measured the maximum diffraction efficiency in the range of beam intensity of 1.6~100 W/ $\textrm{cm}^2$, and the response times for both cases of recording and erasing. Two sets of results obtained from the experiments are compared and analyzed.

4% 물의 MgO가 도핑된 광굴절 $LiNbO_3$ 결정에 기록된 광굴절 격자의 회절 효율과 응답시간을 측정하였다. 이 실험에는 고출력 펄스 Nd:YAG 레이저(Q-switch mode,$\lambda$=532nm)와 연속 발진 아르곤 이온 레이저($\lambda$=514.5nm)가 사용되었다. 두 종류의 레이저 광속에 대한 실험에서 광학계의 배열을 동일하게 하고 2광파 혼합 조건에서 레이저 광속의 세기를 1.6~100W/$\textrm{cm}^2$까지 변화시켜가며 최대 회절 효율과 기록 및 소거시의 응답시간을 측정하였다. 두 실험에서 얻은 결과를 비교하고 분석 하였다.
