Echelette

...Specifically, this can be achieved by a computer-programmed ruling engine (for machine-cut gratings) or a device that can create laser interference fringes that meet specific conditions on a blank grating material (for holographic gratings). By making the cross-sectional shape of the grating grooves sawtooth, most of the diffracted light intensity can be concentrated at a specific wavelength and order, which is called an echelette grating. Figure 2 shows a typical example, where most of the diffracted light is concentrated in a certain range centered on the direction in which the incident light is specularly reflected by the groove surface. ...
