The boundary diffraction method (BDM) is an approximate method that permits the derivation of analytic solutions for the output beams, both forward and backward propagating, that arise from the fundamental nature of ...
An approximate analytic method is presented that permits the calculation of all the output waves, both backward and forward traveling, for slanted, transmission-type volume gratings replayed at the Bragg angle and perfectly ...
A reflection grating with a binary surface profile is presented that has high diffraction efficiency. The measured intensity for the + 1st diffracted order was 77%. The binary grating is composed of a minilattice with ...

In the usual model of an imaging system, only the effects of the aperture stop are considered in determining diffraction-limited system performance. In fact, diffraction at other stops—those associated with different lens ...
For the first time to our knowledge, a detailed theoretical basis is provided for the well-known inverse-square scaling law of holographic diffraction, which states that replay diffraction efficiency η=Γ/M2, where M is the ...
We present an analytical model of the dynamics of spatial harmonics of holographic grating profiles, taking into consideration record mechanisms (polymerization and components diffusion), absorption, interference pattern ...
Artificial index gratings, which are composed of binary microstructures of sizes less than the incident wavelength, are analyzed as functions of the filling factor or duty cycle of the microstructures. Different models for ...
The number of samples required for efficient numerical simulation of wave propagation can be determined by a combination of Wigner phase-space techniques, wave energy confinement arguments, and a theorem relating
energy ...
Some of the theoretical models in the literature describing the mechanism of hologram formation in photopolymer materials predict the existence of higher harmonics in the Fourier expansion of the recorded
refractive ...
