Advantages and disadvantages of different layout concepts for such gratings, their fabrication regime and measurements of their scattering will be discussed. The application of such gratings as coupling components to a reflective Fabry-Perot cavity resulted in a finesse of more than 400.en620Low-loss gratings for next-generation gravitational wave detectorsconference paper
