Abstract
We demonstrate experimentally a setup with which a two-dimensional picture can be transmitted from one plane to another at a signal request of the latter plane and the original picture continues to propagate unhindered along its original direction to the next stage. The setup makes use of photorefractive four-wave mixing and the self-pumped phase conjugation for its operation. Some means for increasing the contrast of the final transmitted image have been discussed.
