Abstract :
Summary form only given. We have demonstrated and characterized resonant photorefractive four wave mixing in ZnMnSe epilayers under moderate applied voltages using interdigitated electrodes. The giant Zeeman splittings of the excitonic transitions experienced by this material will also make it possible to magnetically tune the wavelength of the photorefractive diffraction.
