Paper Abstract

An alternative technique for blazing sinusoidal-profile gratings is discussed. Whereas conventional blazing techniques use an energetic ion beam to mill through a sinusoidal photoresist profile into a substrate, this technque creates the blazed profile in the photoresist itself, without milling into a substrate. Advantages to this technique are discussed, and grating efficiency curves and groove profiles are shown, before and after ion milling. Simulation results that predict the evolution of the groove profile under ion bombardment are also discussed.
