A novel mechanism of photorefractivity in nematic liquid crystal (LC) cells is presented. Dynamic photorefractivity is based on temporal quasiperiodic modules excitation in the liquid crystal layer by applied external alternating electric field and their reorientation due to the charges induced by interference optical field on a surface of photoconducting orienting layer.
