Holographic grating - can we calculate efficiency for each order?

$

Hi,

I'm new to working with gratings. From using the basic grating eqn., I'm able to model the diffraction angles for each order with different angles of incidence upon the grating and I can calculate the dispersion given a broadband source with known minimum and maximum wavelength.

However, I'm unsure how the angle of incidence affects the power going into each order. I think the n=+1 order is usually the most efficient, although is there a dependence upon the incidence angle / diffraction angle for efficiency?

Thanks
