摘要
Photorefractive materials, including traditional electro-optic photorefractive crystals as well as photopolymers and photosensitive glasses, have demonstrated their potential in information systems. In this paper, we describe several applications of various photorefractive materials in information storage, processing, and communication systems. Specifically, we briefly review the applications of the traditional electro-optic photorefractive crystals in optical information processing and volume holographic data storage, then discuss our recent works on the applications of photopolymers, holographic polymer dispersed liquid crystals, and photosensitive glasses in photonic devices for optical fiber communications.
