Abstract
A method includes selecting a period for a volume Bragg grating (VBG) such that a spectral selectivity of the VBG is at least as wide as a spectral width of a broadband light beam that is to be spatially transformed, selecting a desired beam transformation for the broadband light beam, passing a first light beam from a recording light source through an optical device to a volume holographic recording medium where the optical device is configured to induce the desired beam transformation, directing a second light beam from the recording light source to the recording medium, and converging the first light beam and the second beam at a recording angle such that a spatial refractive index modulation profile is recorded in the recording medium that provides the VBG with the selected period, and a phase profile is embedded in the VBG that induces the desired beam transformation for each spectral component within a spectral width of the VBG.
