Abstract

Photorefractive crystals are great for image processing, beam amplification,and phase conjugation. I will describe these and a number of other newapplications of photorefractive crystals. I will also show how light beamsin these crystals are like politicians: if given the chance they will alwayschoose the path that maximizes their own gain.
