Abstract
Efficient free-carrier-induced refractive-index gratings can be recorded quasi-instantaneously in semiconductors through absorption of interfering laser beams; however, due to thermal diffusion, the lifetime of these gratings is generally much smaller than that of the free carriers themselves.
