I have some issues with getting the grid splitter to work properly.
I have placed the GridSplitter between two grids but the problem is that the grid splitter attaches to left grid which is the only one I can move with the splitter. If I move the left grid towards the right grid, the right grid will get smaller but if I move it away from the right grid it will not expand more than its initial size.
How can I place the GridSplitter in such a way that it allows me to adjust the width of the right grid and then reducing the width of the left grid if it is dragged that way.
I did add a SharedSizeGroup to one of the child grids of the right grid but I'm not sure if that is relevant to my problem, removing it didn't solve anything.
I have also tried to play around with the ResizeBehavor of the GridSplitter also without luck.
I hope it makes sense.

I changed the Grid "logic" a bit. As I understand you correct you want the GridSplitter for the middle part. Thats why I put the top and bottom part in extra rows to keep them away from the GridSplitter. I had to remove the HorizontalAlignment="Right" from your right Grid, too. Otherwise it would have not changed it's size.
Just to be sure the GridSplitter is working I removed the WebBrowser and added Background colors to the left and right Grid. You can replace that. Thought maybe it would be helpfull for you to see if it's working like expected.
/edit added width relation
<Grid Grid.Row="1">
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="2*" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="Auto" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="1*" />
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<!-- The "Left" Grid -->
This means when you start the application the first column will take twice the size then the third.
This should be a decent showcase, it's exactly the same for columns, just sideways.
<Grid>
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="300"/> //sets the height of the first row
<RowDefinition Height="*"/> //* sets the remainder of the height, doesn't work like auto!
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<Grid Grid.Row="0"
HorizontalAlignment="Left"
Width="400"
Background="Green" />
<Grid Grid.Row="0"
Margin="400,0,0,0"

I have a Xaml view where I'm trying to display Textbox inside a grid which is inside an Exander.
<Expander DataContext="{Binding DiagnosticCategories[0].DiagnosticResults[0]}" <!-- For the test -->
Background="Transparent"
Foreground="{StaticResource ActiveForegroundBrush}"
IsExpanded="False">
<Grid Margin="10">
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="*" SharedSizeGroup="A" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="*" SharedSizeGroup="A" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="auto" />
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="auto" />
<RowDefinition Height="auto" />
<RowDefinition Height="auto" />
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<StackPanel
Grid.Row="1"
Grid.Column="0"
VerticalAlignment="Top">
<TextBox
Margin="10"
Background="Transparent"
BorderThickness="0"
FontSize="13"
FontWeight="Light"
Foreground="{StaticResource ActiveForegroundBrush}"
IsReadOnly="True"
Opacity="0.8"
ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Disabled"
SelectionBrush="Black"
Text="{Binding FormatedParameters, Mode=OneWay}"
TextWrapping="Wrap" />
</StackPanel>
[...]
</Grid>
</Expander>
However, there is a problem with the Textbox which has a anormal height even if my text is just "aa"...
First, I thought that the problem was with the Grid.Row and the Textbox only fit it so I tried to add a StackPanel which doesn't fit the Grid.Row but it doesn't work. It seems that the problem is in the textbox.
With a TextBlock, I don't have this problem but I need the Textbox to display my text.
You can try RichTextBox.
When I want to use TextBox, I have the same problem under a certain height. I solved the problem by using RichTextBox instead of TextBox.
<Expander DataContext="{Binding DiagnosticCategories[0].DiagnosticResults[0]}" <!-- For the test -->
Background="Transparent"
Foreground="{StaticResource ActiveForegroundBrush}"
IsExpanded="False">

<ColumnDefinition Width="auto" />
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>

<RowDefinition Height="auto" />
<RowDefinition Height="auto" />
<RowDefinition Height="auto" />
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<StackPanel

Grid.Column="0"

<RichTextBox

BorderThickness="0"
FontSize="13"

Foreground="{StaticResource ActiveForegroundBrush}"
IsReadOnly="True"
Opacity="0.8"
ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Disabled"
SelectionBrush="Black"
Text="{Binding FormatedParameters, Mode=OneWay}"
TextWrapping="Wrap" />
</StackPanel>
[...]
</Grid>
</Expander>
As others mentioned, I'm a little unsure what you are trying to achieve. I added a couple of horizontal and vertical layouts to your example:
<Expander DataContext="{Binding DiagnosticCategories[0].DiagnosticResults[0]}"
Background="Yellow" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center" MinWidth="200"
IsExpanded="False">
<Grid Margin="10" Background="Blue">
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="*" SharedSizeGroup="A" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="*" SharedSizeGroup="A" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="auto" />
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="auto" />
<RowDefinition Height="auto" />
<RowDefinition Height="auto" />
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<StackPanel
Grid.Row="1"
Grid.Column="0"
VerticalAlignment="Top">
<TextBox
Margin="10"
Background="Orange"
BorderThickness="0"
FontSize="13"
FontWeight="Light"
IsReadOnly="True"
Opacity="0.8"
ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Disabled"
SelectionBrush="Black"
Text="Test Text"
TextWrapping="Wrap"
/>
</StackPanel>
</Grid>
</Expander>
And I get the following:

Firstly if you wanna make your datagrid fill a container automatically, you need to use Grid, not StackPanel also your datagrid sizes need to be set auto.
Edit:
As #Erjon said : You don't have to use a container when you have a single DataGrid.But if you have more components with your DataGrid, Grid will be a better container choice instead of StackPanel.
Your main GridDefination sizes were set as Auto, that was wrong.You need to work with "*" if you want a resposive design.Auto means that "Set this control's size with its children".
Try adding in the datagrid ColumnWidth="*"
It will expand all columns to avaiable space and the datagrid will fill it's parent
The second ColumnDefinition of the first grid should be <ColumnDefinition Width="*" />
And as #Zacos said in my answers comment you have to remove Width
I tried to implement a GridSplitter to my WPF Window - like shown here http://www.wpf-tutorial.com/panels/gridsplitter/
Worked just well. But I wanna do a double grid splitter. So the window should be splitted in a left and a right part. And the right part should be splitted in a top and a button part.
<Grid>
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="Auto" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="5" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="Auto" />
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<Grid></Grid>
<GridSplitter Grid.Column="1" Width="5" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" />
<Grid>
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="Auto" />
<RowDefinition Height="5" />
<RowDefinition Height="Auto" />
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<TextBlock FontSize="55" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center" TextWrapping="Wrap">One</TextBlock>
<GridSplitter Grid.Row="1" Height="5" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" />
<TextBlock Grid.Row="2" FontSize="55" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center" TextWrapping="Wrap">Two</TextBlock>
</Grid>
</Grid>
Buuut it alawys splits up the left part in two pieces. I tried like everything setting the Grid.Row and Grid.column for everything explicit - but nothing. What am I missing?
To achieve what you would like:
<Grid>
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="*" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="5" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="*" />
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<TextBlock FontSize="55" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center" TextWrapping="Wrap">Left</TextBlock>
<GridSplitter Grid.Column="1" Width="5" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" />
<Grid Grid.Column="2">
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="*" />
<RowDefinition Height="5" />
<RowDefinition Height="*" />
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<TextBlock FontSize="55" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center" TextWrapping="Wrap">Top</TextBlock>
<GridSplitter Grid.Row="1" Height="5" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" />
<TextBlock Grid.Row="2" FontSize="55" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center" TextWrapping="Wrap">Bottom</TextBlock>
</Grid>
</Grid>
You didn't set Grid.Column="2" on the the second Grid you intended to be on the right.
I also changed the Width and Height properties to * so the horizontal and vertical GridSplitters will sit in the center.
I have an application (implemenented in WPF, XAML) which has 6 rows and 6 columns. At the position Grid.Row="1" Grid.RowSpan="4" Grid.Column="0" Grid.ColumnSpan="5" , I'm using a TabControl for Dashboard, Housekeeping, and Science. In every TabControl, I'm using a ListBox on the left side to choose individual data. The rest (w/o the ListBox) of the field/grid (which should have a size of 4 rows and 4 columns) is available for charts.
Problem
The charts which are visible in the screenshot below should be stretched over 4 rows down to the bottom edge of the application according to the XAML code. The TabControl is not 4 rows as visible because of the white boarder I have attached.
How can I change my grid-concept that it works as described above? Is a grid in the grid, resp. in the TabControl necessary at all?

Replace your StackPanels with Grids. StackPanels size to their child elements, whereas Grids size to their parent.

I want a layout like VS 2008. In which I want two columns and second columns is again split into two.
I done that in the xaml mentioned below, but the GridSplitter is not visible vertically ( which split two columns).
I want both the GridSplitters to be resizable. One GridSplitter resizes the Left Hand Pane and Right Hand Pane and another GridSplitter resizes the subgrid's top pane and right pane..
The Second GridSplitter is working through this XAML but I am not able to produce XAML code that Splits the Right hand Pane and Left hand pane..

Change your vertical Splitter to
<GridSplitter Grid.Column="0" Width="5" ResizeDirection="Auto"
Grid.RowSpan="1"
HorizontalAlignment="Right"
VerticalAlignment="Stretch"/>
This will be much better way to use GridSplitter

<ColumnDefinition Width="5"/>
<ColumnDefinition Width="*"/>

The GridSplitters should probably be on their own row/column in the grid, not sharing a cell with the other controls.
Your gridsplitter is behind the other controls that's why you can't see it. You can either move it to the bottom in your XAML file (so it is added last) or use the Panel.ZIndex attached property. Additionally you have to set the width for the splitter correctly correctly:
<Grid>
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="*"/>
<ColumnDefinition Width="*"/>
<ColumnDefinition Width="*"/>
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<StackPanel Background="Aqua" Grid.Column="0" >
