Doppler shift generated by a moving diffraction grating under incidence by polychromatic diffuse light [PDF]
We consider the spectral response of moving diffraction gratings, in which the incident light extends over a broad angular range and where the diffracted light is observed from a specific angle. We show that the dispersion relation between the frequency perceived by an observer who is looking at a moving grating and the incident frequency can exhibit ...

Towards polarizing beam splitters for cold neutrons using superparamagnetic diffraction gratings [PDF]
For holographic gratings recorded in superparamagnetic nanoparticle-polymer composites the diffraction efficiency should -- next to grating spacing, nanoparticle concentration and grating thickness -- depend on the strength of an external magnetic field and the incident neutron spin state. As a consequence, diffraction gratings should be tunable to act

Comparison between Grating Imaging and Transient Grating Techniques on Measuring Carrier Diffusion in Semiconductor [PDF]
Optical grating technique, where optical gratings are generated via light inference, has been widely used to measure charge carrier and phonon transport in semiconductors. In this paper, compared are three types of transient optical grating techniques: transient grating diffraction, transient grating heterodyne, and grating imaging, by utilizing them ...

Engineered asymmetric diffractions of diagonal-line odd-symmetric phase gratings
A two-dimensional multi-element phase grating has been designed in terms of the offset refractive index to exhibit the spatially odd symmetry ( antisymmetry ) along one transparent diagonal line with an even number of rectangular elements while leaving ...

Fraunhofer diffraction at the two-dimensional quadratically distorted (QD) Grating [PDF]
A two-dimensional (2D) mathematical model of quadratically distorted (QD) grating is established with the principles of Fraunhofer diffraction and Fourier optics. Discrete sampling and bisection algorithm are applied for finding numerical solution of the diffraction pattern of QD grating.

Measuring the orbital angular momentum of electron vortex beams using a forked grating [PDF]
The present study experimentally examines how an electron vortex beam with orbital angular momentum (OAM) undergoes diffraction through a forked grating. The nth-order diffracted electron vortex beam after passing through a forked grating with a Burgers vector of 1 shows an OAM transfer of nh.
