Temperature dependence of the photorefractive effect in doped cadmium flouride

Holographic techniques were used to study the optical properties and bistable behavior of Ga-doped cadmium fluoride. Ga impurities form bistable centers in CdF���. Illumination causes a phototransformation from a deep to shallow center, which causes a change in the index of refraction. This change i...
