Abstract	The physics of the photorefractive effect is briefly discussed. A coupled-mode theory is then developed to analyze the coupling of two coherent electromagnetic waves inside a photorefractive medium. Both codirectional and contradirectional coupling are considered. The coupled-mode theory is then extended to consider the case of nondegenerate two-wave mixing. A discussion of the fundamental limit of the speed of photorefractive effect is then introduced. The coupling of two polarized beams inside photorefractive cubic crystals is considered. The formulation is focused on the cross-polarization two-beam coupling in semiconductors such as GaAs. The coupling of two electromagnetic waves inside a Kerr medium and the electrostrictive Kerr effect are discussed. A new concept of nonlinear Bragg scattering is introduced. The similarity among various kinds of two-wave mixing, including stimulated Brillouin scattering and stimulated Raman scattering are pointed out. Several applications of two-wave mixing are discussed. These include photorefractive resonators, optical nonreciprocity, resonator model of self-pumped phase conjugators, real-time holography, and nonlinear optical information processing.<>
