Description

An investigation of holographic recording in the counterpropagating geometry of two-wave mixing experiments for crystals of the sillenite-group is presented. Three identical samples of Bi12SiO20, Bi12TiO20 and Bi12GeO20 crystals have been investigated. It was shown that a maximum grating amplitude and a maximum diffraction efficiency are observed for the recording by beams with different directions of linear polarization
