Abstract
In this paper, we discuss and characterise two variations on the dissimilar wavefront technique1 that give near-linearly and quadratically chirped gratings. This technique is advantageous over others that have been proposed for the fabrication of chirped gratings because of its simplicity and flexibility. A high level of bandwidth control is demonstrated for gratings of bandwidths in the range of 0.5-23nm.
