Diffractive elements of variable optical power and high diffraction efficiency
Applied Optics, 1993The generation of diffractive elements of variable optical parameters and high diffraction efficiency is presented. It can be realized by a superposition of two conjugate kinoforms. In particular, the method gives rise to zone plates of variable focusing power as well as to circular and linear gratings of variable deflection angles.

In this dissertation, the mathematical model of effect of manufacturing errors including microstructure relative height error and relative width error on diffraction efficiency for the harmonic diffractive optical elements (HDEs) is set up. According to the expression of the phase delay and diffraction efficiency of the HDEs, the expression of ...

Effects of diffraction efficiency on the modulation transfer function of diffractive lenses
Applied Optics, 1992Diffractive lenses differ from conventional optical elements in that they can produce more than one image because of the presence of more than one diffraction order. These spurious, defocused images serve to lower the contrast of the desired image. We show that a quantity that we define as the integrated efficiency serves as a useful figure of merit to

High-diffraction-efficiency pseudorandom encoding
Journal of the Optical Society of America A, 2000Pseudorandom encoding (PRE) is a statistics-based procedure in which a pure-phase spatial light modulator (SLM) can yield, on the average, the prescribed diffraction pattern specified by the user. We seek to combine PRE with the optimization of an aperture-based target function.

Enhanced diffraction efficiency of gratings in multilayers
Optics Letters, 2000Computations with the rigorous differential method show that single gratings made by ion implantation have a diffraction efficiency in the +1 transmitted order under TE illumination of only 0.78%. The insertion of such gratings into multilayer dielectric Fabry-Perot cavities leads to an enhancement of the free-space diffraction efficiency.

Balancing diffraction efficiency and laser damage in diffractive optics
Optical Modeling and Performance Predictions IX, 2017Diffractive optics enable applications requiring high power laser focusing and beam shaping. The ability of such components to resist damage is of mounting importance as lasers attain higher power levels. Diffractive optics inherently contain discontinuities that can enhance electric field distributions within the component. Researchers have previously

High diffraction efficiency, broadband, diffraction crystals for use in crystal diffraction lenses
Experimental Astronomy, 2006A major goal of the MAX program is to detect and measure gamma rays produced following the nuclear reactions that take place in a supernova explosion. To detect a reasonable number of supernovae, sensitivities of the order of a few times 10-7 γ cm-2sec-1 are needed — much better than possible with current instruments. The approach in the MAX program is

Diffraction efficiency of magnetic hologram
IEEE Transactions on Magnetics, 1972MnBi thin films have been studied as a magneto-optical memory element. Ordinarily, restricted conditions are required for preparing pure MnBi film with excellent properties and homogeneity. However, in the case of Mn-Bi-Te films, it was found that adopting the proper composition made it easy to prepare homogeneous films, and the figure of merit F/α was

Diffraction efficiency evaluation for diamond turning of harmonic diffractive optical elements
Applied Optics, 2020Single point diamond turning is a commonly used method for manufacturing harmonic diffractive optical elements (HDOEs). Diffraction efficiency of HDOEs is sensitive to surface-relief profile errors, and a half-round tool can reduce the profile error obviously. Furthermore, the diamond tools also create surface roughness errors.
