There are two prevalent models for the photoexcited charge migration, namely, the band transport theory and the hopping model3. In this paper we present a detailed comparison of the hopping and band transport models. We place the hopping model in the same framework as the band transport model. The hopping model is then modified to include an external electric field dependent time constant. This allows the development of an expression for the total electric space charge field for the condidtion of an externally applied alternating electric field. This expression is used in the electromagnetic coupled wave theory to predict the two wave mixing gain. Experimental and theoretical results are then compared. AC photoconductivity experimental results and theoretical predictions are also presented and compared.","PeriodicalId":385625,"journal":{"name":"Topical Meeting on Photorefractive Materials, Effects, and Devices II","volume":"141 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122065281","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The effects of both intensity and phase modulation of the writing beams on the diffraction efficiency and on the response time are considered. The phase modulation analysis includes the double-exposure and time-average techniques.

In a recent paper, the spectral dependence of the photorefractive erasure by using the holographic method has been studied [1]. Two major absorption bands producing photorefractive erasure were found, their peak positions and halfwidths respectively being 2.7 eV (0.27 eV) and 3.1 eV (0.4 eV). These bands were obtained by numerically fitting the experimental decay constants for each erasing wavelength to those predicted by a two centre model [2] in which fast carrier exchange between the two traps was assumed. Because of practical reasons related with the fitting process, the geometrical shadow effect (sample selfabsorption) was not taken into account in that paper. Therefore the band parameters obtained from photorefractive erasure are necessarily a first approximation which should be improved with other measurements. In this paper, an analysis of the optical absorption and photoconductivity spectra based in those gaussian components is presented. This analysis is expected to provide a more detailed knowledge of the bands responsible for the optical absorption, photoconductivity and photorefractiorn, although the actual nature of the centres originating the bands remains uncertain. Photochromic effects induced on these bands by low temperature illumination, as well as their thermal annealing, will be also considered.","PeriodicalId":385625,"journal":{"name":"Topical Meeting on Photorefractive Materials, Effects, and Devices II","volume":"80 6","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120886999","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
