Abstract

In this paper we present a study on the performance of diffractive lenses as a function of their f/#. To this end, we study two- and three-dimensional lenses that consist of binary, four-, eight-, and sixteen-level diffractive profiles over a range of f/#s. Lens performance is characterized in terms of diffraction efficiency for lenses of different number of levels and f/#.
