Abstract
Theoretical and experimental analyses of degenerated two-wave interaction in media possessing the optical Kerr effect are presented. A simple method for the investigation of physical mechanism of optical nonlinearity based on the two-wave self-diffraction is proposed. It has been demonstrated theoretically and experimentally that the interference of two waves with orthogonal polarizations in the nonlinear Kerr media results in a diffraction grating, which provokes the light self-diffraction.
