which allows us to extract the carrier recombination time
diffusion coefficient and the decay time of the grating from the experimental results.According to the theory of laser-induced dynamic gratings and the phase-matching condition
we have obtained equations (7)-(10). So the decay time of grating
the carrier recombination time and the diffusion coefficient can be derived from relative intensities of the constant background and the two peaks around τ=0 and τ=-

peak is much weaker than that of the τ=0 peak. This phenomenon can not be attributed to carrier diffusion because the size of the ultrafine particle is much smaller than the period of the two gratings
carriers are effectively confined in the particles. We attribute
