New fields of science such as holography and nonlinear optics developed constituting the basis of this volume. The classical principle of linear superposition of light wavesdoes not hold anymore. Two laser beams crossing in a suitable material may produce a set of new beams with different directions and frequencies. The interaction of light waves can be understood by considering the optical grating structures which develop in the overlap region. The optical properties of matter become spatially modulated in the interference region of two light waves. Permanent holographic gratings have been produced in this way by photographic processes for many years. In contrast, dynamic or transient gratings disappear after the inducing light source, usually a laser, has been switched off. The grating amplitude is controlled by the light intensity. Dynamic gratings have been induced in a large number ofsolids, liquids, and gases, and are detected by diffraction, ‘forced light scattering‘ of a third probing beam, or by self-diffraction of the light waves induc | 出版日期 | Textbook 1986 | 关键词 | diffraction; holography; interference; laser; light scattering; nonlinear optics; optical properties; optic | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-540-39662-8 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-662-15197-6 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-540-39662-8Series ISSN 0342-4111 Series E-ISSN 1556-1534 | issn_series | 0342-4111 | copyright | Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 1986 |
