초록
격자의 구조가 간단하고 격자의 대조비가 낮은 SBC 시스템 구성을 위한 무편광 유전체 다층박막 회절격자를 설계하였다. SBC 방법으로 결합한 빔의 빔 품질을 높게 유지하기 위하여 회절격자의 파면 왜곡이 최소화되는 구조를 제안하였으며, 오염에 의한 흡수가 발생하지 않고 회절격자를 제작할 수 있는 구조로 회절격자를 최적화 설계하였다. 설계된 회절격자는 1055 nm 중심파장 에서 Littrow 각도로 입사하는 경우 무편광 -1차 회절 효율이 99.36%이었으며, 96% 이상의 무편광 회절 효율을 나타내는 공정 여분이 확보되어 있음을 확인하였다.
Abstract
We design a polarization-independent dielectric multilayer thin-film diffraction grating for a spectral-beam-combining (SBC) system with a simple grating structure and low aspect ratio. To maintain the high quality of the SBC beam, we propose a multilayer mirror structure in which the wavefront distortion due to stress accumulation is minimized. Moreover, to prevent light absorption from contamination, an optimized design to minimize the grating thickness was performed. The optimally designed diffraction grating has 99.36% diffraction efficiency for -1st-order polarization-independent light, for incidence at the Littrow angle and 1055-nm wavelength. It is confirmed that the designed diffraction grating has sufficient process margin to secure a polarization-independent diffraction efficiency of 96% or greater.
