Abstract
We introduce a new optical component – rotated chirped volume Bragg grating (r-CBG) – with a compact footprint capable of spatially resolving the spectrum without the need for subsequent free-space propagation. Unlike conventional chirped Bragg gratings in which both the length and width of the device increase with operation bandwidth, the link between the length and width of r-CBG is severed, leading to a significantly reduced footprint for the same bandwidth. We fabricate and characterize such a device of total volume 25x6x6 mm3 in multiple spectral windows, we study their spectral resolution, and via FROG measurements we confirm that a pair of cascaded r-CBGs can resolve and combine the spectrum of a 100-fs pulse.
