The Grating_trans Component

Transmission grating

Identification

Description

Model of a 1D rectangular transmission grating based on the theory developed in Schnopper et. al., Applied Optics, 1977.
The grating lines are assumed to be vertical. Within each period a fraction gamma is the "open" fraction.
(I.e. 1 is completely open). At present only absorption in the substrate (modelled by the thickness sdepth)
is included.

This  component is currently undergoing validation.

Input parameters

Parameters in boldface are required; the others are optional.
NameUnitDescriptionDefault
fixed_delta0
xwidthmWidth of the grating. Defines how many lines there are in total.1e-3
yheightmHeight of the grating.1e-3
periodmDistance between grating grooves.1e-6
gamma Ratio between groove and period aka duty cycle. 1 means fully open.0.5
zdepthmDepth of grooves.1e-6
sdepthmThickness of substrate. The default is to have no substrate - i.e. rods.0
