Propagation of optical beams and properties of one-dimensional (1D) spatial solitons in biased photorefractive media with quadratic electro-optic effect are analysed. An exact analytic solution of the corresponding propagation problem is presented as well as a numerical investigation of the evolution of optical beams.
