Abstract
A new method for eliminating the chromatic aberration of a diffractive optical element (DOE) for wideband wavelengths is presented. The wide band-wavelength diffractive optical element (WBDOE) consists of two al igned DOE's. The use of different dispersive materials for the two DOE 's eliminates chromatic aberration. The design and simulation of a WBD OE for the visible spectrum are presented. (C) 1998 Optical Society of America.
