Abstract

Multi-layer dielectric grating is a key element used in chirped-pulse amplification technique. It includes high reflectivity film and periodic gratings on its top. Design of HR coating and top layer film (called multi-layer dielectric grating film) to produce gratings is important to fabricate such element with perfect optical properties and high laser induced damage threshold. In this paper, needle method is employed to synthesize the HR film with non-quarter wave coatings. The top layer is constructed by Fourier modal method, which is a rigorous method to analyze gratings. The synthesized multi-layer dielectric grating film shows good optical properties and electric intensity distribution.
