Lecture

Diffraction Gratings: Transmission vs Reflection

Description

This lecture covers the analysis of diffraction gratings, focusing on transmission and reflection networks. Topics include the efficiency and optimization of networks, conditions for maxima and minima angles, and the use of mirrors to enhance intensity. The lecture also discusses the dispersion and resolution of diffraction gratings, as well as practical applications in spectroscopy. Special cases like the Littrow lattice and the Rayleigh criterion are explained, along with the impact of pulse duration on spectral resolution.
