What is it about?

Principles and electromagnetic efficencies of different gratings, such as surface-relief on mulitidielectric gratings, stratified volume diffracive optical elements, volume-phase holographic gratings, gratings on silicon,, gratings in air or in a material of n index with numerous calculations of efficiencies using electromagnetic theory. Applications to low polarisation WDM and new cyclic free space routers devices, high power laser resonators, and pulse compressors...and more

Why is it important?

It shows how to get high dispersion and high efficiencies with or without low polarisation-dependant loss (low pdl) and low absorption.

Perspectives

We hope that this could help researchers to develop new apllications in telecom WDM devices, better high power lasers and pulse compressors,, and modern spectrometric instrumentation.
