Abstract
This paper discusses the fundamental design issues associated with wideband, high diffraction efficiency phased-array Bragg Cells. Also discussed are the key fabrication steps necessary to obtain optimal results. TRW has fabricated and tested 1 GHz bandwidth (fc=2.5 GHz) and 2 GHz bandwidth (fc=3.0 GHz) GaP longitudinal mode Bragg Cells. Results presented include diffraction efficiency, two-tone 3rd-order intermodulation products, and frequency response.
