Abstract

The theory and the experimental characteristics of the bulk photovoltaic effect in ferroelectric and piezoelectric crystals first observed at the Institute of Crystallography have been reviewed. I dedicate this review to the memory of B.K. Vainshtein whose help in performing these works was really inestimable.
