Abstract
A single optical component, a square prism with a spherical end cap, has been proposed for generating multipie real images of a single object. Ray-tracing computations show that a miniature tunnel lens of this type can multiplex coherent fiber optic arrays and perform digital optical computing operations with high efficiency and no crosstalk.
