Abstract
GaAs is a technologically important material for high-speed electronics, laser, and sensor applications. It also could play an important role in optical processing as a photorefractive medium. GaAs has several potential advantages over conventional photorefractive materials, such as barium titanate, barium strontium niobate, and bismuth silicon oxide. For a given beam intensity, the response time of GaAs is ~2 orders of magnitude taster than those of conventional photorefractive materials.1
