Abstract
A kinoform lens and its substrate are usually treated as two distinct components with a common interface. Thick kinoform lenses treat the re lief profile and the substrate as an integrated component. An analytic al approach for the design of higher-order thick kinoform lenses for s tigmatic imaging between extra-axial conjugate points is presented. An illustrative example is given.
