Holographic current study in laser and photorefractive crystals

Summary form only given. We generalized the theory behind the light-induced grating (LIG) electro-motive force (EMF) technique for material characterization and interferometry, first introduced by Petrov et al. In particular, we have accounted for the screening length, that allowed us to describe adequately the dependence of the amplitude, and the decay-time.
