Common DOE surfaces

Sinusoidal, triangle

Sine.gif

  • Max D.E. ~ 30% ± 1 order
  • Power distribution follows Bessel function in the scaler region.
  • T ≈ λ for transmission.
  • T ≈ λ/4 for reflection.
  • Easily replicated or deep etch can yield higher efficiency.

Square, rectangle

  • Max D.E. ~ 40% ± 1 order.
  • Power distributions favors odd orders.
  • Pi phase shift typical.
  • Classic binary grating.
  • T ≈ λ for transmission.
  • T ≈ λ/4 for reflection.

Blazed, sawtooth

  • Max D.E ~ 98%
  • Reflection Case:
    • λ = 2 d sin a
    • T = λ/2 ± 10%
  • Transmission Case:
    • λ = d sin b
    • a ≈ 2b
    • T = λ/(n-1) ± 10%
    • Surface shadows reduce D.E. by Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \textstyle \frac{\lambda^2}{n d^2}}

Holographic Deflectors (hologons)

Scan.gif

  • N = θD/(1.4λ)
  • N = number of resolvable spots
  • θ = full scan angle in radians
  • D = beam diameter in microns
  • λ = wavelength
  • Φ = wedge angle of glass
  • Special case of linear scan and near wobble invariance a ~ b ~ 45° max straight scan angle ~ 36°
  • Dynamic wobble Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \scriptstyle \simeq \Delta\Omega/128}
  • Wedge wobble = (n-1)Φ
  • Scan angle multiplier = 1.4 @ 90° cross scan angle
