"Holographic Gratings" Page 11A
Wasatch Photonics’ product line of true volume phase holographic diffraction gratings provide superior performance through high dispersion capability, high efficiencies for polarization modes, wide bandwidth, low losses, and rugged design and packaging, including hermetic sealing and small form factor. They are unique because they operate in transmission. Applications that will benefit from enhanced spectral and optical signal separation and measurement include spectroscopy, laser tuning and pulse compression, hyperspectral imaging, fiber optics, and image acquisition. |

"Spectral Filter with Independently Variable Center Wavelength and Bandwidth"
by Gordon Wilson, Chien-Jen Chen, Phil Gooding, and Joe Ford
Abstract: We demonstrate a 2-port spectral filter which uses a single 2-axis MEMS tilts mirror to continuously tune center wavelength across 36nm, and independently tune passband 3-dB spectral width from 28 to 210 GHz. |

Applications for Wasatch Photonics' advanced volume phase
holography grating components include fingerprint identification,
head-up displays, hyperspectral imaging, biochemical sensing
with Raman spectroscopy, and lidar. These athermal,
rugged, lightweight devices can split light into individual
wavelengths, enabling high-performance telecommunications.
They perform multiple optical functions and offer wide bandwidths,
high efficiency, and polarization insensitivity with high
angular dispersion. The company says they won't scratch
and are easy to handle. |

"A GRISM-based probe for spectrally encoded confocal microscopy":
Pages 120-124
by
C Pitris, B.E. Bouma, M. Shiskov, G. Tearney
Abstract:
Spectrally encoded confocal microscopy (SECM) is a novel approach
for obtaining high resolution, depth-sectioned images of microstructure
within turbid samples. By encoding one dimension in wavelength,
imaging probes can be greatly simplified compared to standard
scanning confocal microscopes, potentially enabling endoscopic
implementation. |
