Abstract
In this paper we investigate the behavior of diffractive optical elements (DOE) under partially spatial coherent illumination. We simulate partial coherence using a set of realizations of statistically independent speckle fields. The results indicate that the contrast reduction due partially spatial coherent illumination depends on the feature size of the designed DOE.
