Abstract
Diffractive- and micro-structured optics technology provide new degrees of freedom for the design and optimization of optical systems. Using this technology one can create: large-aperture, lightweight optical elements; correct optical aberrations and achromatize optical systems; eliminate or reduce the need for exotic materials, such as flint glasses; combine multiple optical functions; and reduce significantly optical system weight, complexity and cost.
