T1 - Polarization properties of light-induced scattering in Bi12TiO20 crystals: theory and experiment for diagonal geometry JF - Journal of the Optical Society of America B N2 - Illumination of ac-biased photorefractive Bi12TiO20 crystals with a coherent light beam results in the development of strong nonlinear scattering. Theoretically and experimentally we investigate the angular and polarization characteristics of the scattered light for the diagonal ([1̲1̲1]) optical configuration and different polarization states of the pump. A satisfactory understanding of the observed scattering properties is achieved for most of the cases investigated.
