I am modeling Holograms in non-sequential mode.  I want to optimize recording angles and index modulation to optimize the diffraction efficiency and output angle of the reconstruction beam.  I have not found an example for making index modulation a variable.

Hi Deanna,



You can use the NPRO to set these parameters as variable to optimize.



The operand you could use to obtain the efficiency is NSDP.



I attach you an optimized version modified from the Non-sequential example 3 of the article:



Simulating diffraction efficiency of a volume holographic grating using Kogelnik’s method

You can find a macro in the article attachment that can populate all parameters in MCE and pick-up the values between Reflect and Transmit.





Please let me know if you have follow-up questions about this process, and I'll be happy to help!



 



Best regards,
