Novelty imaging system with a desired long-time scale using BaTiO(3) and a controlled shutter sequence.
A novelty imaging system using photorefractive crystal BaTiO(3) and a controlled shutter sequence, which can be applied to the slow-motion detection of the object, is proposed. In this system the observation time scale is set to the desired long value uninfluenced by the time constant of the crystal that is used. This system utilizes a photorefractive beam-fanning effect in the BaTiO(3) crystal, so it is constructed simply by using only the object beam without suffering from the external disturbance that is intrinsic when the reference beam is used. Moreover, the visibility for an opaque object is also maintained by the use of an additional random-phase plate. We examine the basic characteristics and determine the appropriate conditions of the system.
