We propose a non-destructive, all-optical technique to imprint embedded lateral superlattices near semiconductor heterostructures by illuminating the samples with a stable interference pattern generated by a phase diffraction grating. We demonstrate the technique on an ultrahigh mobility GaAs/AlGaAs sample with a Si δ-doping by inducing a persistent charge redistribution at cryogenic temperatures in the doping layer containing DX-centers. Weiss commensurability oscillations in the magnetoresistance of the light-induced superlattice are observed and analyzed to obtain its characteristics.
