Abstract: | A theoretical model for formation of light-induced gratings in organic photoisomers is presented. Using this model, dynamic behaviors of the light-induced gratings are studied theoretically for two different cases: in the first case, in addition to a CW loser generating the writing beams and the reading beam, a pulsed laser is used as an optical pump, in the second case, the writing beams are provided by a pulsed laser, and the reading beam comes from a CW laser. Agreement between experiment and theory is also demonstrated. |
