A theoretical study on using a fictional mirror to simplify the behavior of a volume Bragg grating in an optical cavity
Abstract
A fictional mirror was proposed to describe the reflective behaviors of a volume Bragg grating (VBG) in an optical cavity. When a finite beam interacts with a VBG, the analytical forms of the location and the radius of curvature of the fictional mirror are derived. In addition, the longitudinal mode spacing of an optical cavity using a VBG as the cavity mirror is investigated theoretically and experimentally.
