Abstract

Many infrared (IR) imaging systems have been proposed which utilize hybrid refractive/diffractive optical elements; however, examples of their use in wide field-of-view (WFOV) lens assemblies have been noticeably absent. This paper discusses the design and aspects of the fabrication of a high performance WFOV infrared objective which utilizes a hybrid refractive/diffractive optical element.
