What Does DOE Stand For?

DOE stands for Diffractive Optic Element

A Diffractive Optic Element (DOE) is an optical component that utilizes diffraction to manipulate light. Unlike traditional optics, which rely on refraction or reflection, DOEs are designed with micro-structural features that can diffract incident light to achieve specific effects, such as beam shaping, wavelength separation, or spatial modulation. These elements are widely used in applications including telecommunications, laser systems, and optical imaging, where precise control over light propagation is required.
