OPTI600E - Diffractive Optical Elements - Fabrication and Testing
Course ID
038424
Course Description
This course is a hands-on fabrication and testing course in which students will learn characteristics of fabricating and testing different types of computer-generated diffractive optical elements (DOEs). Elements include binary amplitude, binary phase and gray-scale phase structures. Gratings, diffractive Fresnel lenses (DFLs) and computer-generated holograms (CGHs) will be fabricated. The primary fabrication tool will be the College of Optical Sciences Maskless Lithography Tool (MLT). Design techniques using Zemax ray-tracing software and an open-source Matlab program called OptiScan learned in the previous course will be used. Students will work in pairs.
