Abstract

Holographic optical elements are an attractive alternative to conventional optical elements in systems using light with a narrow spectral bandwidth. The attributes of holographic optical elements include the capability of producing low f/number diffraction limited optics, and the ability to generate arbitrary wavefronts. They are also potentially easy to replicate and have‘low weight and compact size. Unfortunately, not all of these attributes are shared by all hologram types.Holographic optical elements are an attractive alternative to conventional optical elements in systems using light with a narrow spectral bandwidth.
