  1. Design, Optimization and Implementation of Fresnel Domain Computer Generated Holograms (CGHs) • Diffraction optical elements: reconstruct semi-arbitrary 2D or 3D optical fields • Numerical design: flexible encoding strategy high diffraction efficiency and uniformity • Avoid complications from conventional optical recording process • History: Detour (Brown, 1966), Kinoform (Lesem, 1969) • Applications: beam shaping, optical trapping, communications, 3D television, optical testing • Pure phase: binary*, multi-level • Fabrication method: electron-beam lithography

  2. Motivation • Increasing demand for smaller sized features, large working area semiconductor devices (e.g. LCD manufacture) need novel lithographic methods • CGHs promising candidates for replacing conventional 2D or 3D lithographic techniques • Key advantages: • Depth of focus control • Robust design • Standard fabrication • Simple optical setup • Cost effective • Non-contact • Parallel exposure • High resolution • Large working area • 2D or 3D patterning In-line CGH Lithography Final Device Processing

  3. Problem Definition • Performance of CGHs depends primarily on optimization algorithm and fabrication method • Previous work: X-ray (Jacobsen, 1992), UV (Wyrowski, 2001), EUV (Isoyan, 2006) • Local search methods: inefficient, sensitive to initial point, get trapped at local minima • Current multi-search schemes: optimize small size CGHs Back-propagation CGH Plane Reconstruction Plane Encoding CGH Plane Reconstruction Plane Free parameter Desired Pattern Inverse Problem
