A grating structure useful for WDM multiplexer/demultiplexer applications is described. The grating structure has a substantially polarization-independent diffraction efficiency of a predetermined useful wavelength range, for example, between 1.4 and 1.6 mum. Each grating period includes a triangular section and a flat-topped section, with the width of the flat-topped section between 20 and 50% of the grating period. The disclosed grating structure can be formed in any material that is substantially transparent over the useful wavelength range and used in either a Littrow and a Littman-Metcalf configuration.
