Abstract
A theoretical analysis of space-and-time-domain holography in spectral hole-burning samples with arbitrary initial optical densities is pres ented, and the influence of the exposure, the initial optical density of the sample, and the shape of the homogeneous line on the diffractio n efficiency (DE) of the hologram are studied. The maximum value of th e first-order DE is as high as 40%.
