Abstract:
Systems and methods for improving night vision systems are presented. Broadband multi-level diffractive lenses are used in place of either or both of the objective and eyepiece of traditional night vision systems. By using one or more broadband multi-level diffractive lenses, the size, weight, and weight distribution may be reduced or modified.
