Abstract

The results of experimental investigations into the dynamics of light-induced absorption for coherent incident light (the wavelength λ = 633 nm) and incoherent radiation of a light emitting diode (λ ≈ 660 nm) in single bismuth titanate crystals with different stoichiometric structures are presented. It is demonstrated that the dynamics of two-wave interaction on the photorefractive reflection grating in (100)-cut samples illuminated with coherent light is nonmonotonic in character. Light-induced changes in the absorption coefficient and the efficiency of interaction on the reflection grating increase when the titanium oxide content in the examined samples decreases.
