Sumario:The aim of this work is to present theoretical analysis of the diffraction efficiency in sillenite BTO crystal, for mobile transmission gratings, where the effects of coupling beams are significant [1-5]. In case of the degenerate coupling in photorefractive materials, the efficiency depends of the crystal thickness, coupling coefficient and the input intensity ratio. In the non-degenerate coupling case, the diffraction efficiency also depends on the response time of the photorefractive medium [6]. This response time is the function of concentration ratio [7], i.e., of the relation between acceptor numbers and donor numbers. The diffraction efficiency is obtained by using coupled wave equations in onBragg regime using Method Runge-Kutta of order 4 in Matlab. The analysis considers the nonuniformity of the gratings inside the crystal, the concentration ratio of the material and detuning frequency.
