Abstract
The fabrication and performance of a hybrid diffractive optical system for use in planar optic interconnects is presented. Specifically, a n ovel fiber-optic tap utilizing both lithographic surface relief microl enses and interferometrically generated holographic volume elements is discussed. This system serves as an interface between fiber and plana r optic interconnects for signal distribution. Design tradeoffs and ex perimental results are given.
