Abstract
Two-wave mixing with a small angle between beams in a photorefractive crystal biased with an external electric field leads to the formation of additional non-Bragg orders and to wave amplification. A steady-state gain of was obtained for an external voltage of in strontium barium niobate. Noise amplification and oscillation are also demonstrated.
