Partitioned-field uniaxial holographic lenses

Appl Opt. 2002 Apr 1;41(10):1872-81. doi: 10.1364/ao.41.001872.

Abstract

The efficiency and aberration of partitioned-field uniaxial volume holographic compound lenses are theoretically and experimentally studied. These systems increase the image fields of holographic volume lenses, limited by the angular selectivity that is typical of these elements. At the same time, working with uniaxial systems has led to a decrease in aberration because two recording points (that behave as aberration-free points) are used. The extension of the image field is experimentally proved.
