| The paper gives an overview of theory and presents several examples of application of some holographic techniques: four-wave mixing, self-scattering and beam coupling to study nonlinear optical properties of solids. Among them excitation energy transfer in chromium-doped vibronic laser materials and picosecond study of undoped CdTe are reported. |
