Abstract

Long-period 2D-gratings has many critical applications, especially in the precision measurement system. The photography grating fabrication methods still encounter some problems with the exposure system when fabricating this type of grating. In this paper, we present a process from research to design and fabrication of a 5 μm-period 2D-grating used in a multi-dimension measurement system. Therein, we use ETA software and based on using requirements, fabricating level to design and select parameters of grating detailed. Then, we proposed a novel exposure system to solve the problem of the traditional systems encountered when fabricated long-period gratings. Through the analysis and calculation, we adjust the system to optimize interference aberration, thereby optimizing the spacing errors. The fabrication result has conformed with the design and the spacing error achieved to 0.03 λ within 65 mm × 65 mm of aperture, other parameters of grating all meet the requirements.
