| Summary: | In this paper, we introduce a novel approach to model bending phenomena on holographic volume gratings based on Rigorous Coupled Wave Analysis (RCWA), in which the bending as a phase in the dielectric permittivity expansion is introduced, and the Shooting Method (SM) is employed to solve the resulting system of equations. Further validation of our model is conducted by comparing its predictions to those obtained from reference Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD) simulations and Coupled Wave Theory (CWT, referring to Kubota’s model that includes the bending phenomenon). Furthermore, we propose a methodology for estimating the bending from the diffraction efficiency curves in transmission volume gratings based on deep learning models, with a subsequent study of their accuracy and applicability. |
