Abstract
We report experimental and theoretical studies of the use of the photorefractive effect in the design of optical limiters. Preliminary results indicate extinction coefficients of at least 98–99% with 1 J/cm2 transmitted before steady state is reached.This publication has 8 references indexed in Scilit:
