Abstract

Modulational instability in a photorefractive medium is studied in the presence of two-wave mixing. We then propose and derive a model for forward four-wave mixing in the photorefractive medium and investigate the modulational instability induced by four-wave mixing effects. By using the standard linear stability analysis the instability gain is obtained. In both cases, the geometry is such that the effect of self-phase-modulation self-focusing is suppressed and only the holographic focusing nonlinearity is acting.
