VPHGs ?
a “slice” of photosensitive material with n modulated by an interferometric pattern of fringes grooved in by holography.
The PS-material is embedded in glass components, active or passive following the optical design, that can be AR-coated
The orientation of the fringes determinesthe reflection or transmission behavior.

There is a pair B, 2B for which maximum coherence/efficiency is reached
For a given *2B minimum coherence/efficiency is reached for = B ± . This defines the BLAZE function B(, *2B)
If we scan the Bragg angle (e.g. rotating the VPHG) the maximum coherence/efficiency is reached at different values. This defines the SUPERBLAZE function SB(B, 2B).

•First fully functional prototype used at AAO (K.Taylor, G.Robertson) – 1997(8)
•Pioneering USA work under NSF grant at NOAO (Sam Barden) collaboration with Kaiser Optical (Jim Arns) -1997-2000 (single world producer at the time).
•Richard Rallison (Utah) steps into the market with cheap (but not always science-grade) devices – 1999
•Chris Clemens hosts at UNC two “thinkshops” (1999 and 2000) to join efforts of the astronomical community toward the use of VPHGs

Dimensions. First problem to solve. •Kaiser Optical and Rallison max size 10 cm. •Pupils of exisiting instruments 20 cm. ELTs pupils >40 cm
Players. Second problem to solve. •As single HQ player on the market implies vendor dictates the rules •Astronomy needs “outsourcer reactive to stimuli”, i.e. competition
USA. Third “problem” to solve. •The EU-USA competition (or “coopetition”) in Astronomy is high.•USA technology is “not always” available to other countries

JRA-6 Goals
Selected Areas of research
• IR VPHGs: Enable VPHGs technology in the NIR (1-2.5 microns) regime in cryogenic instruments.
• UV VPHGs: Enable VPHGs technology in the UV (300-450 nm) regime with particular attention to cross dispersers.
• DCG Replacement: Look for a replacement of the DCG as photosensitive element.
• Non-traditional Configurations: Enhance the applicability of “traditional” VPHGs.

JRA-6 programme (OPTICON Contract Annex 1) is aimed to:
• WP2 - Fabrication of fully functional VPHGs working at cryogenic (77 k) temperature and optimized for IR (1-2.5 µm) wavelengths
• WP3 - Improved perfromances VPHGs at visible wavelengths withattention to cross-dispersion, tuneability of the resolution, FPA filling.
• WP4 - Fabrication of the first laboratory-level re-writeable VPHG based on photochromic polymers.
Added at Kick-off (as re-destribution of WP workload):
•WP5 – Fabrication of fully functional VPHGs working at UV (300-450 nm) wavelengths with special care to cross-dispersion.

Conclusions
• Work is progressing generally in schedule. – The viability of the technology has been demonstrated– The way toward science grade devices has started
• There are some minor (not impacting the final deliverable) delays– Due to “problems”, e.g. manpower, cash-flow, delays in parts delivery, etc.– Due to intermediate results, e.g. decision to modify a parameter or build a new
prototype, etc.
• My personal overall judgment of JRA6 activity is extremely positive.
