title: Systematic design method for holographic zone plates with aberration corrections.
abstract: Holographic zone plates have been reviewed and systematically summarized. For the generalized holographic zone plates proposed to correct aberrations in holographic laser scanners, the concept of origin, wavelength and distortion properties, and holographic optical product operation to generate the hologram are discussed. An off-axis aberration correction method for the generalized holographic zone plate is proposed and experimentally demonstrated. Distortion and wavelength properties for extended form holographic zone plates are discussed. The general form for a holographic zone plate, encompassing all kinds of holographic zone plate, is derived.
