It may be important to have the right groove depth in holographic element HOE1 3008 in order to control the 0th order suppression. For example, if the holographic element HOE1 3008 may be a glass plate with a refractive index of 1.55, the groove depth may need to be 550 nm when using a light source with a wavelength of 655 nm to completely suppress the 0th order beam. Complete suppression of the 0th order beam may be desirable but may not be necessary. That is, one may use smaller groove depths. For example, at a depth of 380 nm, the energy may be evenly distributed in the three order beams—0, +1, and −1. This may work adequately in the present invention. More 0th order energy may be undesirable since it could cause more Relative Intensity Noise (RIN) noise.
S(t)={S1(t)*sin(w1*t)} Or {S2(t)*sin(w2*t)} Or {Sk(t)*sin(wk*t)} (Eq1)
For a power level >0.75 kw, measured surface energy of the substrate ˜54 dynes.
For the LED system, UV intensity was measured across the LED “triplet strips” at distances of �″ and 1″ from the surface of the strip. It was found that a relatively uniform energy profile exists at a distance of 1″ from the strip; at the �″ distance, a significant variation of intensity was measured with a large drop between the LED sources
By proper set up of the machine (either Mod2 or the Mill Lane; alignment and operating parameters), may facilitate good rolls of substrate being completed (i.e. roll may be “hard”, well formed, and has minimal wrinkling; at least as good as incoming substrate).
