Transition to optical chaos in a photorefractive parametric oscillator with Bi sub(12)TiO sub(20) crystal

Frequency-shifted waves are generated in a Bi sub(12)TiO sub(20) crystal from two nearly counterpropagating orthogonally polarized pump waves when the electric voltage applied to the crystal exceeds the threshold value. Near the voltage threshold the output beams are regular in shape, for higher vol...

Summary:Frequency-shifted waves are generated in a Bi sub(12)TiO sub(20) crystal from two nearly counterpropagating orthogonally polarized pump waves when the electric voltage applied to the crystal exceeds the threshold value. Near the voltage threshold the output beams are regular in shape, for higher voltages running fringes appear, whilst far from the threshold chaotically moving speckles are observed.
