Abstract

A 50%-50% splitting ratio element is presented by the covering-layer grating. The novel grating introduces a covering layer on the surface-relief grating, which can not only protect the grating surface but also improve the performance of a beam splitter compared with the surface-relief grating. The beam splitter based on fused silica is optimized for the femtosecond laser with high damage threshold. For different incident wavelengths and angles, the 50%-50% splitting ratio element exhibits wideband properties, which are useful compared with most beam splitters operated for certain incident wavelength or angle..
