High-efficiency focusing and imaging by dielectric kinoform zone plate lenses with soft X-rays
With fast advances in enhancing the focusing/imaging resolution of Fresnel zone plate lenses toward sub-10 nm, low diffraction efficiency in connection with their rectangular zone shape still remains a big issue in both soft and hard X-ray microscopy. In

On the Design of Soret Zone Plates Based on Binary Sequences Using Directional Transducers
In this work, we analyze the effect of the distribution of transparent Fresnel regions over the focusing profile of Soret Zone Plates (SZP) based on binary sequences. It is shown that this effect becomes very significant in those fields where directional
