Abstract

A new, high efficiency diffraction grating configuration for use in the situation of grazing incidence is proposed and analyzed. The structure consists of a flat mirror plane, a thin dielectric film with a grating at the air-film interface. It can advantageously replace corrugation metal gratings in all applications, particularly in high power laser applications using the Littman-Metcalf mounting.
