Abstract
We propose a dielectric grating with a metal slab with high efficiency for dense wavelength division multiplexing in optical
communication. The g rating is a mixed structure of the fused silica grating and the Ag slab. For the special duty cycle of 0.65 and optimized grating depth and period, the grating can show the efficiency of 97.57% for TE polarization and 97.10% for TM polarization. Furthermore, it indicates that the wideband incident wavelength can be obtained from the analysis of performance. Most importantly, the good fabrication tolerance for efficiency higher than 95% can facilitate the fabrication and application of such a grating..
