Abstract
Conditions for the realization of the highly effective transformation of a light field by dynamic holograms using a scheme of frequency-nondegenerate six-wave mixing in dyed organic liquids are determined. The mechanism of the manifestation of a nonlinear fifth-order optical susceptibility in linearly absorbing liquids is established, which is related to the nonlinearity of the thermooptical coefficient and the temperature dependence of the density and heat capacity of a solvent. The quadratic recording of dynamic holograms with a diffraction efficiency of 20% is realized in ethanol solution of copper chloride.
