Two beam energy exchange in hybrid liquid crystal cells with photorefractive field controlled boundary conditions

We develop a theory describing energy gain when two light beams intersect in a hybrid nematic liquid crystal (LC) cell with photorefractive crystalline substrates. A periodic space-charge field induced by interfering light beams in the photorefractive substrates penetrates into the LC layer and reor...
