       where 6 is the intersection angle outside the crystal, and n is the refractive index
       of the crystal. Under the paraxial approximation, and a « 1, wave vector k n
       can be shown as

       where / is the wavelength of the light source, and / is the focal length of the
       lens. Similarly, the recording object wave vector k t , reading wave vector k 2 ,
       and diffracted wave vector k 3 can be shown as

         With reference to momentum conservation and the infinite extension in the
       u direction, we have Ak u — 0. By substituting preceding wave vectors into Eq.
       (2.106) and using the condition A/e u = 0, the dephasing wave vector for the
       transversal and the longitudinal directions can be shown to be

                            Afc a = x t - x 0 + x 3 - x 2 = 0,      (2.1 1 3)

       If readout beam k 2 is shifted; that is, x 2 = x l — S, then we have
