    摘要: A soft aperture allows gradual attenuation of a light beam dependent upon its location away from the center of a diffractive optical element. Such an optical element may be provided by decreasing a number of phase levels, increasing a number of phase levels, increasing a density of metal patches or diffractive gratings, or decreasing a blaze height and/or duty cycle, all radially from the center. Alternatively, the soft aperture may be defined by a photolithographic process. Such a soft aperture is particularly useful in aiding circularizing of an elliptical light beam. The soft aperture may be used alone or integrated with other optical elements.

    摘要: A power monitor for a light emitter emitting from a single face creates a monitor beam by deflecting a portion of the application beam and further manipulating the monitor beam to allow more efficient use of the monitor beam. For example, the monitor beam may be collimated to allow an increase in spacing between the light emitter and a detector for sensing the monitor beam. Alternatively or additionally, the monitor beam may be focused to allow use of a smaller detector and of a smaller percentage of the application beam. The diffractive element deflecting the beam may be either transmissive or reflective. The additionally manipulation of the monitor beam may be provided by the same diffractive element which deflects the beam, which is particularly useful when the diffractive element is reflective, and/or by additional optical elements.

    摘要: A thin camera having sub-pixel resolution includes an array of micro-cameras. Each micro-camera includes a lens, a plurality of sensors of size p, and a plurality of macro-pixels of size d having a feature of size q. The feature size q smaller than p and provides a resolution for the micro-camera greater than p. The smallest feature in the micro-cameras determines the resolution of the thin camera. Each macro-pixel may have any array of m features of size q, where q=d/m. Additional micro-cameras may be included to increase power.
