Abstract

We present an analytical solution and experimental results for four-wave mixing in photorefractive crystals with depleted pumps. The approximation that we introduce permits a theoretical treatment without numerical computation. The measurements, which were performed using a BaTiO₃ crystal, are compared with this model.
