(a) Fraction of the photoactivated states accumulated during the nanosecond pulse (470 nm, 7 mJ cm⁻²) for the front and back faces of the 20 µm thick crystal. (b) Fraction of the photoactivated states accumulated after the pulse along the light path in the crystal. The average of the red line is 0.34, representing the expected occupancy. This value was obtained using equation (10)
