Abstract

Zone plates have emerged as a viable alternative to conventional refractive lenses due to their lightweight, compact design and ease of fabrication. However, achieving high-intensity single focus with enhanced imaging resolution remains a challenge. In this study, we proposed the super high-order Hilbert zone plates (HZPs) based on the space-filling Hilbert curve to address these limitations. Our comprehensive simulations and experimental validations demonstrated that the super high-order HZPs concentrate most of the incident light into a single focus, with a tiny focus spot, thus offering enhanced imaging resolution. Through a detailed comparison with the binarized geometric lenses, we illustrated the superior imaging capabilities of the super high-order HZPs. By redefining the traditional roles of zone plates, the super high-order HZPs emerge with the potential to replace binarized geometric lenses. The proposed super high-order HZPs hold significant promise for applications in integrated optical systems, optical imaging, medical imaging, photolithography, and precise scientific measurement.
增强聚焦和成像与超高阶希尔伯特带板
由于其轻巧、紧凑的设计和易于制造,带片已经成为传统折射透镜的可行替代品。然而,在提高成像分辨率的情况下实现高强度单焦仍然是一个挑战。在这项研究中,我们提出了基于空间填充希尔伯特曲线的超高阶希尔伯特带板(HZPs)来解决这些局限性。我们的综合模拟和实验验证表明,超高阶HZPs将大部分入射光集中在一个焦点上,焦点光斑很小,从而提高了成像分辨率。通过与二值化几何透镜的详细比较,我们说明了超高阶HZPs优越的成像能力。通过重新定义带片的传统作用,超高阶HZPs具有取代二值化几何透镜的潜力。所提出的超高阶HZPs在集成光学系统、光学成像、医学成像、光刻和精确科学测量方面具有重要的应用前景。

期刊介绍: Optics and Lasers in Engineering aims at providing an international forum for the interchange of information on the development of optical techniques and laser technology in engineering. Emphasis is placed on contributions targeted at the practical use of methods and devices, the development and enhancement of solutions and new theoretical concepts for experimental methods. Optics and Lasers in Engineering reflects the main areas in which optical methods are being used and developed for an engineering environment. Manuscripts should offer clear evidence of novelty and significance. Papers focusing on parameter optimization or computational issues are not suitable. Similarly, papers focussed on an application rather than the optical method fall outside the journal''s scope. The scope of the journal is defined to include the following: -Optical Metrology- Optical Methods for 3D visualization and virtual engineering- Optical Techniques for Microsystems- Imaging, Microscopy and Adaptive Optics- Computational Imaging- Laser methods in manufacturing- Integrated optical and photonic sensors- Optics and Photonics in Life Science- Hyperspectral and spectroscopic methods- Infrared and Terahertz techniques
