Abstract

This paper is dedicated to the development of synthesis methods for diffractive optical elements (DOEs) on non-planar surfaces. To form 3D images, a set of color 2D frames is used, visible to an observer from different observation points. The developed DOEs can be called a stereogram with a 360-deg view when the DOE is illuminated with white light. Methods are developed for computing the phase function of the DOE and are applicable to a wide range of convex surfaces. However, the manufacturing technology used limits this range to conical and cylindrical surfaces. The microrelief of the flat DOE is produced using electron-beam lithography. A video recorded using optical elements produced demonstrates the capabilities of the technologies developed. These DOEs can be used to protect brands against counterfeit.
