Design and Fabrication of Si-HDPE Hybrid Fresnel Lenses for Infrared Imaging Systems

In this work, novel hybrid Fresnel lenses for infrared (IR) optical applications were designed and fabricated. The Fresnel structures were replicated from an ultraprecision diamond-turned aluminum mold to an extremely thin layer (tens of microns) of high-density polyethylene polymer, which was direc...
