Pulse participation Excited State Absorption (ESA) Ground State Bleach (GSB) Stimulated Emission (SE) Hole spectrum time
Transient Grating (TG) 2pulse interference 1) Thermal change 2) Volume change 3) Spectrum change 3pulse interference n(t):refracture index k(t):absorbance
Three-pulse photon echo peak-shift τ≫0:decoherent→no echo T≫0:vanish diffraction fringe→no echo
