Abstract:
This paper deals with application of the known genetic stochastic procedure to determine the optimum of the function of many variables to designing quantized DOEs forming pre-given intensity distribution along an axial focal zone. Computer simulation results are presented.

Key words: diffractive optical elements, light focusing, stochastic optimization procedure.
