A method for writing programmable volume phase gratings into photorefractive materials using visible wavelengths in a transmission geometry, and then subsequently probing these gratings in a reflection geometry using infrared (IR) wavelengths to achieve specific angles of reflection of the probe beam is analyzed. The programmable features of these gratings include grating spacing and tilt, or K-vector magnitude and orientation. Relationships have been derived between the incidence angles of the writing beams and the corresponding reflection angles of the IR probe beam. More specifically, for a fixed angle of incidence of the probe beam, two unique writing beam angles can be found which generate a grating with the correct spacing and tilt to reflect and steer the probe beam through a wide field of desired angles.
