Abstract

We study the dynamics of phase grating formation with visible light in an optical fiber. Adopting a simple two-photon local bleaching model, we show the grating approaches an ideal grating, where the writing frequency is always in the center of the local band gap, as it evolves. The evolution at each point in the fiber can be described in terms of a universal parameter.
