摘要: The diffractive-phase axicon can convert the Gaussian-profile beam into axial uniform intensity distribution with long focal depth and high lateral resolution. Two types of phase-retardation functions for the nonuniform-illuminating axicon are derived in terms of the ray tracing and the geometrical law of energy conservation. Based on the general theory of the amplitude-phase retrieval in optical system and the iteration algorithm, the optimization design of the phase distribution of the diffractive-phase axicon can be achieved. The simulation celculations show that the new approach may successfully offer the design of the desired diffractive-phase axicon with long focal depth and high lateral resolution. A comparison of the performances of the holographic axicon with the phase-retardation functions from the geometrical optics prediction and the diffractive-phase axicon designed by the new approach is also presented.
