Abstract

Design procedures for simple two- and three-element diffractive telescopes are described. The basic configuration for the two-element design is obtained analytically by solving design equations to set the Seidel aberrations to target values. Computer optimization is used to complete the design of the doublet and triplet telescopes. It is shown that diffraction limited performance can be obtained from these diffractive systems. 1.
