Problems solved by technology

[0006] However, for the holographic ion beam etching method, since the grating blaze angle mainly depends on the three factors of the grating duty ratio, groove depth and groove shape of the photoresist mask, and the photoresist is in the process of interference exposure, for the duty ratio , etch depth and groove shape control are several major problems that have not been well solved at present, so there are great difficulties in realizing the control of blaze angle

Abstract

The invention provides a holographic blazed grating manufacturing method. Through making a homogeneous grating on a substrate, taking the homogeneous grating as mask, and carrying out oblique ion beam etching, a needed blazed grating is obtained. Since time of positive ion beam etching can be controlled when making the homogeneous grating, a groove depth of the homogeneous grating is accurately controlled. In addition, after obtaining a photoresist raster through interferometric lithography, ashing technology can be increased further, a duty cycle of the photoresist raster is controlled, and a duty cycle of a needed homogeneous grating is controlled. According to the manufacturing method of the present invention, multi-parameter control of blazed grating manufacture is realized, and manufacture precision is raised.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a preparation method of a diffractive optical element, in particular to a preparation method of a holographic blazed grating. Background technique [0002] Grating is a very widely used and important high-resolution dispersive optical element, which occupies a very important position in modern optical instruments. [0003] As we all know, the principal maximum direction of diffraction by a single grating is actually not only the geometrical optics propagation direction of light, but also the zero-order direction of the entire multi-slit grating. It concentrates light energy, but cannot separate various wavelengths. In practical applications, Focus on concentrating as much light energy as possible on a specific order. For this reason, it is necessary to make the diffraction grating into a groove shape determined by calculation, so that the main maximum direction of the diffraction of a single grating groove (or the direction of...
