Light wave diffraction from multiple superposed volume gratings is inestigated using a perturbative iteration method of the integral equation of Maxwell's wave equation. The host material and index gratings are anisotropic and non-coplanar multiple volume gratings are considered. In this method, the paraxial approximation and lack of backward scattering in conventional coupled mode theory are not assumed. Systematic analysis of anisotropic wave diffraction due to multiple noncoplanar volume index gratings is performed in increasing level of diffraction orders corresponding to successive iterations.

A simple fabrication technique of diffraction gratings with short periods is presented. We can see that the monitoring of diffracted light from photoresist gratings during the development process provides optimum conditions for exposure and development processes. With this technique reproducibility and high quality of diffraction gratings is expected.

정확한 모드전송선로 이론 (MTLT)을 적용하여 원추형 광 입사에서 공진 회절격자의 특성을 조사하였다. 원추형 구성에서 공진 회절과 관련된 모드 벡터가 전형적이 구조의 회절격자와 관련된 것보다 입사각에 따라 작게 변한다는 것을 보여주었다. 더욱이, 소멸하는 회절파가 공진 효과를 담당하는 누설 모드를 구동함에 따라, 원추형 장착은 기존 회절격자보다 더 큰 각도 허용 오차를 회절격자에 부여함을 보였다. 이에 기초하여, 수치 계산을 통하여 원추형 입사에서 발견된 스펙트럼을 사용하여, 원추형 및 클래식 구성에서 공진 회절격자의 각도-스펙트럼과 파장-스펙트럼 성능을 정량화하였다. 이러한 결과는 효율적이고 물리적으로 희소한 공진 회절격자를 요구하는 다양한 응용 분야에서 유용할 것이다.

We report the diffraction behavior of the functionalized sol-gel film composed of two different silanes. One silane (SGDR1) contains disperse red 1 (DR1) that is composed of an azobenzene unit. The other silane (SGCHC) bears a chalcone derivative that is photocrosslinkable under UV irradiation. Two-beam coupling method was employed for fabricating the diffraction gratings. The dynamics of formation and erasure of the gratings was studied in term of the variation of the diffraction efficiency. The decaying behavior of the polarization efficiency was also observed after turning off the two pump beams. For complete erasure of the diffraction gratings, we irradiated the linearly polarized single beam. During two-beam coupling, we irradiated UV light on the film surface. The effects of the photocrosslink between the double bonds in chalcone units on the value and dynamic properties of diffraction efficiency are mainly studied in this work.

Microholographic gratings were prepared on an aluminum oxide ($Al_2O_3$) surface using a 140-fs pulse at a center wavelength of 800 nm. The $Al_2O_3$ was deposited on a silicon wafer and on indium tin oxide glass to a thickness of approximately 25 nm using an atomic layer deposition process. The silicon wafer substrate exhibited reflection-type gratings that were measured as a function of the incidence angle. The diffraction efficiency of the fabricated gratings was measured, with a maximum diffraction efficiency of 45% at an incidence angle of approximately $30^{\circ}$.

Diffraction gratings were designed to generate multiple beams for the real-time optical interconnection in free-space using a liquid crsytal television. Multi-level phase gratings consisted of stepped phase value, 0 to 2$\pi$, and generate a 5$\times$5 spot array, and V-shaped spot patterns which have a maximum diffraction efficiency of 78.84%. Simulated annealing technique was used to determine phase states of each pixel having uniform intensity and high diffraction efficiency. Through the optical interconnection experiments, we compared the diffraction characteristics of beam paterns obtained by binary-level, four-level, and eight-level phase gratings.

Diffraction gratings with precise spatial periods of 2 ${\mu}m$ and 5 ${\mu}m$ have been fabricated by using a femtosecond laser which does not have limits on materials of micromachining and small thermal effects due to high peak power. Diffraction angle and diffraction efficiency of those were measured. Simulation results of diffraction angle and diffraction efficiency of the diffraction grating calculated with the parameters such as line width, depth, and spatial period of the fabricated gratings were compared with experimental results measured with a He-Ne laser. Besides these, Fresnel Zone Plates (FZPs) with focal distances of 50 mm and 25 mm were fabricated and focal distances of fabricated FZP were measured. Those experimental results for diffraction gratings and FZPs match well with experimental results.

We reported the diffraction analysis of the liquid crystal (LC) binary gratings and the surface anchoring energies for planar and homeotropic alignments. The planar and homeotropic anchoring energies were directly derived based on the linearly distorted director distribution near domain boundaries, in which the distorted lengths correspond to the extrapolation lengths into both planar and homeotropic regions. From the diffraction analysis for the LC binary gratings with various grating periods based on the linearly graded phase model, both distorted lengths into planar and homeotropic regions were simultaneously obtained. In this work, the planar and homeotropic anchoring energies were found to be about $1.4\;{\times}\;10^{-4}\;J/m^2$ and $0.9\;{\times}\;10^{-5}\;J/m^2$, respectively.

은염건판을 반전표백 처리하여 위상형 홀로그래픽 회절격자를 제작하였다. 반전표백에 적합한 화학적 현상액을 사용하고, 표백 후 isopropyl alcohol에 의한 급속탈수 방법으로 회절격자의 효율을 높일 수 있었다. 현상액의 종류와 표백액의 조성 변화 그리고 건조 방법에 따른 회절효율의 변화를 실험적으로 측정하였으며, 각각의 경우에 제작된 회절격자의 특성을 이론적으로 분석하였다. 제작된 회절격자는 최적 조건에서 최고 88%의 효율을 보여, 상용표백 방법으로 제작된 회절격자에 비해 산란이 적으면서도 효율이 높은 결과를 얻었다.

Three-armed, star-shaped molecules containing 4-(N,N-diphenyl)amino-4'-nitroazobenzene chromophores were synthesized to study the diffraction behavior after inscribing surface relief gratings. The two molecules differed in terms of their mode of chromophore attachment to the core. In compound 5, they were bound to the core laterally through alkylene spacers, whereas the chromophores were tethered perpendicularly to the core in compound 4. Although 60 wt% of the polar azobenzene chromophores was comprised of large molecules, no aggregation behavior was observed in the absorption spectra of the thin films. The surface relief gratings were elaborated on the surface of the molecular films by the two-beam interference method. The dynamics of grating formation were studied in terms of the diffraction efficiency using two different film samples made up of two star-shaped molecules. The maximum diffraction efficiency of D-$(ENAZ)_3$, compound 4, was measured to be about 30%, which was significantly high. The mode of chromophore attachment affected the dynamic properties of the diffraction gratings.
