The elastic properties and thickness of mullite environmental barrier coatings grown through chemical vapor deposition (CVD) on silicon carbide substrates were measured using frequency domain photoacoustic microscopy. In this technique, extremely narrow bandwidth surface acoustic waves are generated with an amplitude modulated laser source. A photorefractive crystal based interferometer is used to detect the resulting surface displacement. The complex displacement field is mapped as a function of source-to-receiver distance in order to extract the wavelength of the surface acoustic wave at a given excitation frequency, and the phase velocity is determined. The coatings tested exhibited spatial variations in thickness and mechanical properties. The measured surface wave dispersion curves were used to extract an effective value for the elastic modulus and the coating thickness. Nanoindentation was used to validate the measurements of the effective elastic modulus. The average elastic modulus measured through the coating thickness using nanoindentation is compared to the effective modulus found using the photoacoustic system. Optical microscopy is used to validate the thickness measurements. The results indicate that the photoacoustic microscopy technique can be used to estimate the effective elastic properties in coatings exhibiting spatial inhomogeneities, potentially providing valuable feedback for the optimization of the CVD growth process.

Fractal-space multiplexing using a moving window(MW) can multiplex holograms by moving a window left and right. and up and down. But, crosstalk occurs by two neighboring moving windows in the vertical direction of the holographic memory system and limits high-density information recording. Accordingly, we analyzed the crosstalk with the focal length of lens, the distance of MW, and the number of multiplexed hologram to record high-density infromation and presented the optical experimental results of fractal-space multiplexing using volumetric photorefractive crystal and disc type photopolymer.

We report a simple method for determining photovoltaic constant and conductivities of any photorefractive crytals which have no inversion symmetry by utilizing the electric field dependence of non-phase-matched second harmonic generation. New theoretical expression for the electric field dependence of Maker fringes is derived and space charge field can be determined using this from the observed change of intensity of second harmonic wave. The photovoltaic constant, dark conductivity and photoconductivity are easily deduced from an analysis of the measured relaxation behavior of space-charge field at two different light intensities. We demonstrate this method for $LiNbO_3$ at 514.5 nm.4.5 nm.

We present a sequential stereoscopic display system using volume holographic storage. Multiple angular multiplexed stereoscopic image pairs are recorded into a photorefractive crystal that can store data with high density, transfer them with high speed, and select a randomly chosen data element. The reference beam with Bragg selectivity is scattered by the index grating and the diffracted beams are propagating along the directions of the stereoscopic image pairs. The images are to be suitably projected on the left and right display plane sequentially for stereoscopic video viewing.

Scale and rotation invariant polar-logarithmic coordinate transformation is used to achieve deformation invariant pattern recognition. The coordinate transformation is produce by a computer generated hologram (CGH). The mask fabricated by a photo (UV light) pattern generator for the 1nr-$theta$ coordinate transformation is made of the CGH whose transmission function is derived by the use of Lee's method. The optically produced coordinate transformed function is derived by the use of Lee's method. The optically produced coordinate transmission input pattern is interfaced on real-time holography. Variations of autocorrelation for scaled and rotated input patterns are suggested experimentally using implemented optical correlator.

We investigate the generation of the dark spatial soliton and its role of wave guiding in Fe doped$LiNbO_3$ A cw Ar+ laser of 488 nm is used for the generation of the dark spatial soliton. The generation of the dark spatial soliton is observed even at the laser intensity as low as 10 mW/cm2. The self-defocusing effect is observed when the direction of the intensity variation is parallel to the optic axis, while it can't be seen when perpendicular to the axis. So, it is verified that the refractive index change is generated parallel to the optic axis. When 633 nm He-Ne laser beam is injected into the dark spatial soliton, the beam propagates just as in the diffraction free medium. So, it is verified that the dark spatial soliton can act as a waveguide.eguide.

Because of the photorefractive recording dynamics, each newly recorded hologram partially erases all previously stored image. Thus achieving the desired diffraction efficiency profile for the entire sequence after all images have been recorded requires exposure time schedule. The often cited classical exposure-schedule model predicts a rising-exponential build-up and an exponential decay in An with an exposure time. However because we cannot directly measure the An, it's difficult to establish the relation of both. In this paper, we deduce the relation of diffraction efficiency and exposure time from experiment data and suggest an algorithm to make time schedule profile in angle/fractal multiplexing of holographic data storage. After that, we present simulated result with equal hologram diffraction efficiency for a sequence of 250 holograms recorded by angle/fractal multiplexing.

In this paper, we propose an optical correlator system using volume holograms for database of matched filters. Optical correlator has high speed and parallel processing characteristics of optics. Matched filters are recorded into a volume hologram that can store data with high density, transfer them with high speed, and select a randomly chosen data element. The multiple reference images of database are prerecorded in a photorefractive crystal in the form of Fourier transform images, simply by passing the image displayed in a spatial light modulator through a Fourier transform lens. The angular multiplexing method for multiple holograms of database can be achieved by rotating the crystal by use of a step motor. Experimental results show that the proposed system can be used for the fingerprint recognition.

In a LiNbO$_{3}$ crystal, optical noise is caused by the inhomogeneity of crystal inside if the excess energy is incident on the crystal. In this paper, we experiemnt the influence of optical noise when it is applied for beam diffraction and optical information storage. And it is proposed the energy threshold level which is not affected by optical noise in Fe-LiNbO$_{3}$ crystal(0.02Wt.% doped, 10mm*10mm*10mm). The optical noise of crystal weremeasured as a function of the incident beam intensity(10mw, 5mw, 1mw, 0.5mw), direction in incident(orthogonal, left rotation, right rotation) and wavelength(514.5nm, 632.8nm).
