从标量场的菲涅耳衍射理论出发,研究了球面波入射平面透射光栅的衍射场,导出菲涅耳衍射场的复振幅分布,并得到光栅菲涅耳衍射角的计算公式．结果表明,在理想情况下菲涅耳衍射的每一级衍射波都是一个球面波;在对菲涅耳衍射角进行新的定义后,衍射角的计算仍然可以采用夫琅禾费衍射的光栅方程．     

用菲涅耳理论研究衍射光路可逆性

 用菲涅耳衍射理论研究了光栅及双光栅成像系统衍射光路的可逆性。首先用菲涅耳衍射理论分析单片光栅衍射光的复振幅分布,根据其复振幅分布的相位关系研究其可逆性;再根据单片光栅衍射光路所具有的结论来分析双光栅衍射成像效应的衍射光路可逆性,得到了光栅衍射光路及双光栅成像系统光路具有部分可逆性;应用衍射光路的部分可逆性诠释了双光栅成像效应的本质及光栅的汇合光谱特性是色散光谱特性的逆效应,并根据衍射光路具有部分可逆性的特性实现了图像处理。     

一种新型透射式自聚焦光栅的设计及理论研究

结合普通透射光栅的分光特性和菲涅耳波带片的聚焦特性,提出一种应用于软X射线波段的新型透射式自聚焦光栅。根据菲涅耳衍射理论,对其衍射特性进行理论推导,证明该新型光栅存在一个与光栅平面垂直的焦平面,不同波长的光波聚焦于该焦平面的不同位置。在焦平面上,焦点位置随光子能量的变化是线性的,即能实现光子能量的线性测量。通过解析推导,得到在沿着焦平面和垂直于焦平面两个方向上光斑的展宽模式,发现该新型光栅在沿着焦平面的光斑展宽模式不同于普通光栅。根据基尔霍夫衍射公式,设置实用化参数,对其衍射模式进行了详细的数值模拟研究,并讨论了相应的测谱范围和谱分辨率。     

有限宽双光栅成像效应的分析与应用

 用稳相积分法分析了点光源经过2个平行放置的有限宽平面透射光栅组成的系统衍射后的复振幅分布。当两光栅满足双光栅成像条件时,将其衍射成像与无限宽双光栅衍射成像进行对比,得到有限宽光栅对双光栅衍射像的位置没有影响,而衍射像随两光栅之间的相对距离及衍射级数而变化。文中计算了满足双光栅成像条件时,某实验参数下衍射像的大小的情形,结果有限宽双光栅成像被放大了1.22倍。并根据其原理进行白光再现普通透射全息图色彩研究。

利用部分相干光理论对多色光源照明下光栅的菲涅耳衍射进行了理论分析,得到了适用于任意发光类型(脉冲或连续发光)的多色光源的衍射光强的一般公式,理论结果表明菲涅耳衍射区的平均衍射光强的形式只与光源的频谱分布有关,这对借助于连续发光光源来研究脉冲光源照明下光栅的塔尔博特效应以及用来确定脉冲光源的性能参量提供了有力的参考依据。此外,详细讨论了光源的频谱分布对光栅塔尔博特效应的影响并进行了相应的数值计算。实验中通过选用不同频率的激光分别照明光栅,拍摄到对应于不同频率的衍射光强分布图像,从而间接获得多色光同时照明光栅时总的衍射光强分布。实验结果表明,理论和实验符合较好。

The spectral combination characteristic of grating and the bi-grating diffraction imaging effect

This paper reports on a new property of grating, namely spectral combination, and on bi-grating diffraction imaging that is based on spectral combination. The spectral combination characteristic of a grating is the capability of combining multiple light beams of different wavelengths incident from specific angles into a single beam. The bi-grating diffraction imaging is the formation of the image of an object with two gratings: the first grating disperses the multi-color light beams from the object and the second combines the dispersed light beams to form the image. We gave the conditions necessary for obtaining the spectral combination. We also presented the equations that relate the two gratings’ spatial frequencies, diffraction orders and positions necessary for obtaining the bi-grating diffraction imaging.     

Quasi-fractional Talbot effect of resonant diffraction grating

The Fresnel diffraction of resonant diffraction grating is studied on the basis of the modal method, and it shows that the conventional fractional Talbot effect can still occur by choosing appropriate parameters. The Fresnel diffraction distributions of the resonant diffraction gratings with periods between λ and 4λ are analyzed, and the diffraction fields exhibit periodicity in both grating direction and the propagating direction. The experiment is carried out to verify the simulation results of the quasi-fractional Talbot effect of the resonant diffraction grating. This effect has potential application in lithography for high-resolution patterning.     

Polarizing beam splitter of two-layer dielectric rectangular transmission gratings in Littrow mounting

We theoretically investigated the design of polarizing beam splitters (PBS) of two-layer dielectric rectangular transmission gratings in Littrow mounting. The PBS grating is aimed to separate TE and TM polarized waves into two different transmitted orders, i.e. the 0th and −1st orders. The polarization-dependent diffraction process is analyzed by using a simplified modal method. The mode reflection and transmission at the interface of the two layers are illustrated. Design equations are given based on the average mode indices of the even and odd modes inside the grating region, which are verified by using rigorous coupled wave analysis. Moreover, with simulated annealing algorithm, two kinds of two-layer PBS gratings are optimized for operation over the C-band (1520-1570 nm). Compared with the single-layer transmission PBS gratings, such two-layer scheme exhibits a great flexibility of design. The PBSs of two-layer dielectric transmission gratings should be useful for practical applications.     

零像散宽波段平场全息凹面光栅的优化设计

平场全息凹面光栅的理想像面应为一平面,此时子午焦线与弧矢焦线均位于像面内且彼此重合,形成接近理想像点的光谱像。但子午焦线总是存在弯曲,只有弧矢焦线在满足一定条件的情况下可以成为直线。鉴于此,提出一种满足平场弧矢焦线条件的平场全息凹面光栅设计方法。利用光学设计软件ZEMAX研究了运用此方法设计的零像散光栅的成像特性,并与原有设计方法得到的结果进行比较。模拟结果显示,满足平场弧矢焦线条件的光栅能够达到与原有方法所设计光栅相当的光谱分辨率,而其全波段零像散特性使其拥有更加出色的弧矢方向聚焦性能,显著提高平场光谱仪的信噪比。

These gratings will be useful elements for the imaging of guided waves in integrated optics. A theoretical approach for treating their imaging properties is presented. The experimental results are described theoretically.
