Abstract
In this paper, we propose a method to fabricate the grating for a laser diode shaper. During the grating recording, a beam that has polarization mode orthogonal to those of two recording beams is added. The intensity of the additional beam is controlled by a spatial light modulator to provide the spatial variation of intensity modulation, which leads to the difference of the saturation diffraction efficiency. As the results of the experiment, the laser beam shaped by the obtained grating has Gaussian desired profile intensity and is not aberration along the propagation.
