Hi Amrita,

This paper describes an implementation of FDTD in a bulk phototrefractive crystal. A key difference from my implementation is I only use 1 light pulse (instead of 2), and want to generate the photorefractive patterns in the photonic crystal due to the self interference of the photonic crystal.
