Light-induced absorption in photorefractive strontium barium niobate

Abstract

Sr0.59Bao.41Nb2O6 and Sro.75Bao.25Nb2O6 exhibit an intensity-dependent absorption in the visible spectral range. We perform pump (green)-probe (red) measurements and find variation as high as 0.45 cm-' in the absorption coefficient, which depends significantly on the polarization of the probe light beam. Our results indicate a nonexponential dark decay time of the induced absorption and suggest that the trapping potential of the shallow traps varies significantly from one trap to another (multiple isolated shallow traps).
