Abstract
We report the first demonstration of Volume Bragg grating (VBG) by femtosecond laser writing in silver-containing glasses using type A high refractive index modification supported by the laser-inscribed silver clusters. We present a comparative study between different approaches to achieve high diffraction efficiency in VBG for the VIS-NIR range. The first approach involves direct writing, line-by-line, and plane-after-plane, of the entire structure with a Gaussian beam as well as a Bessel beam. The second method will be considered with the inscription under a periodic phase mask. This work opens the avenue for femtosecond writing VBG with high throughputs compatible for industrialisation
