Abstract
Current interest in the nonlinear optical properties of photorefractive materials stems from the fact that they are potential components in the design of parallel optical logic architecture. Barium titanate and bismuth silicon oxide are the two candidates being studied, and they show promise provided the polarization states of the input radiation fields are identical. This restriction can be removed if the medium can respond to the interference of two orthogonally polarized light fields.
