ABSTRACT:
A photorefractive system is disclosed containing interposed between electrodes an electrophotographic photoreceptor layer unit and a layer having a second order polarization susceptibility of greater than 10.sup.-9 electrostatic units comprised of organic polar aligned noncentrosymmetric molecular dipoles having an electron donor moiety linked through a conjugated .pi. bonding system to an electron acceptor moiety. The device can be employed to transfer information from one source of electromagnetic radiation to another.
