Abstract
TORRES-TORRES, C. and KHOMENKO, A.V.. Autodifracción vectorial de dos ondas degeneradas en medios con efecto Kerr óptico. Rev. mex. fis. [online]. 2005, vol.51, n.2, pp.162-167. ISSN 0035-001X.
Theoretical and experimental analyses of degenerated two-wave interaction in media possessing the optical Kerr effect are presented. A simple method for the investigation of physical mechanism of optical nonlinearity based on the two-wave self-diffraction is proposed. It has been demonstrated theoretically and experimentally that the interference of two waves with orthogonal polarizations in the nonlinear Kerr media results in a diffraction grating, which provokes the light self-diffraction.
Keywords : Nonlinear optics; optical Kerr effect.
