Popis: We report an accurate mathematical model describing the photo-electromotive-force signal produced by a speckle pattern of light vibrating in the volume of a photorefractive crystal with a large transverse amplitude. Our model shows that, for vibrations much faster than the material response time, the first harmonic term of the photo-electromotive-force signal exhibits a maximum at a characteristic value of the vibration-amplitude-to-speckle-size ratio that depends on the dark-to-photoconductivity ratio in the material. The theoretical results are in good agreement with experimental data from a vanadium-doped photorefractive CdTe (CdTe:V) crystal under 1064nm wavelength illumination.
