With the rapid development of micro-optical applications, there is an increasing demand for micro-optical elements that can be made with minimal processing steps. Current research focuses on practical functionalities of optical performance, lightweight, miniaturization, and easy integration. As an important planar diffractive optical element, the Fresnel zone plate (FZP) provides a compact solution for focusing and imaging. However, the fabrication of FZPs with high quality out of hard and brittle materials remains challenging. Here, we report on the fabrication of diamond FZP by femtosecond laser direct writing. FZPs with the same outer diameter and different focal lengths of 250-1000 µm were made via ablation. The fabricated FZPs possess well-defined geometry and excellent focusing and imaging ability in the visible spectral range. Arrays of FZPs with different focal lengths were made for potential applications in imaging, sensing, and integrated optical systems.
