Design parameter optimization of a chip based on a heterostructure with a surface
diffraction grating for laser beam angle modulation was carried out.
It was found that the widest field of view is achieved at outcoupling
angles close to the total internal reflection. The highest energy
efficiency is provided by using epitaxy Bragg reflector on the
substrate side. It is shown that using a multiple quantum well that
gives electro-optic refractive index modulation by 0.007 and
second-order surface diffraction grating with a period of 317 nm
provides laser beam steering in a range of 5°, with resolution of 130
points at a wavelength of 782 nm.
