Waveguide holographic elements recorded by guided modes
Abstract:
Recording holographic optical elements in planar waveguides with both interfering beams being guided modes has certain advantages. We show that such holograms can be efficiently recorded when only a small fraction of the guided modes penetrates the recording material that is deposited outside the main guiding region. An integrated optic wavelength-division demultiplexer is analyzed and implemented as a specific example. In this example the holographic grating also acts as a focusing element; thus no additional collimating or focusing lenses are required.

Propagation of Waves
Consider a scenario where a wave propagates from a string of low linear mass density to a string of high linear mass density. In such a case, the reflected wave is out of phase with respect to the incident wave, however the...
