Abstract
Two parameters govern the performance of a surface-relief diffractive:- the phase function, given by the radial positions of the diffractive steps, which provides a means for counterbalancing both chromatic aberration and spherochromatism;- the diffractive step heights, and the zone shapes between these steps, dictate the grating efficiency within a selected diffractive order.
