Motivation

High resolution imaging by photorefractive effect

– photorefractive microscope

Content

1. Stability of the table

2. Photorefractive effect

3. Light propagation in the photorefractive materials – BaTiO3 photorefractive mirror

4. Non-aberation imaging

5. Photorefractive microscope

6. Conclusion

Michelson interferometer He-Ne laser (λ = 632.8nm)
