Abstract
We proposed a method, which is the first to our knowledge, to realize the phase-shift patterns of the near-field lithography in the optical far field. The key component of the optical Fourier system was a phase-only diffractive optical element which generated a diffracted light field of a semi-phase-only complex-valued function. The achieved feature size was beyond the diffraction limit. The advantages of the proposed method included the capability to generate the complicated patterns, spatial parallelism, and low cost.
