A transient diffraction grating based on the K intermediate of the bacteriorhodopsin photocycle has been produced on the nanosecond time scale. The diffraction efficiency, which would be sufficient for pattern recognition for example, was measured and the intensity dependence assessed.}, isbn = {1521-4095}, doi = {10.1002/adma.19930051111}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/adma.19930051111}, author = {Wu, Shuguang and Br{\"a}uchle, Christoph and El-Sayed, Mostafa A} }
