Wasatch Photonics specializes in high performance Volume Phase Holographic Gratings (VPHGs) and Volume Phase Holographic Optical Elements (VHOEs).  Our transmission geometry simplifies design and manufacturing.

At Wasatch Photonics, we are committed to quality, innovation, and meeting the needs of our customers. With 130+ years of combined experience and 80+ patents in the design and manufacture of Volume Phase Holography, our skilled staff is unmatched in quality and know-how.  Our state-of-the-art 6500 square foot manufacturing facility produces sizes from <6mm to >400mm in prototype and production quantities.

There are two general diffraction grating technologies:  Surface Relief (SR) Gratings and Volume Phase Holographic Gratings (VPHGs).  These are depicted in the figure to the right.   

Our flagship products are called Dickson® gratings.  These are an enhanced form of VPHGs using Wasatch Photonics’ patented technologies and proprietary know-how.

Dickson® gratings outperform all other grating technologies because of their high diffraction efficiencies in both S & P polarizations.

To the right are representative graphs for Dickson® gratings used in DWDM applications.  These show very high Diffraction Efficiency and extremely low Polarization Dependent Loss.

This is why Dickson® gratings are ideal for every application requiring polarization insensitivity and maximum use of incoming photons.

Dichromated gelatin (DCG) is the recording media of choice.  Dickson® gratings, Volume Phase Holographic Gratings (VPHGs), and Holographic Optical Elements (HOEs) are produced for spectral ranges of 350-2400nm in sizes from <6mm to >400mm.
