Title:
IMAGING DEVICE AND METHOD FOR FABRICATING SAME
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2008/020630
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
There is provided an imaging device in which its optical system is simplified, its cost is reduced, and a reconstructed image with an appropriate image quality and small noise effects can be obtained. A method for fabricating the imaging device is also provided. The imaging device comprises an optical system (110) and an imaging element (120) for forming a first image and an image processing device (140) for forming the first image into a high-definition final image. The optical system (110) includes an optical wave modulator for modulating an optical transfer function (OTF) and a diaphragm disposed adjacent to the optical wave modulator. When the diameter of the diaphragm aperture is denoted by φ and the distance between the diaphragm and a phase modulation element is denoted by D, the condition φ Œ D < 2 is satisfied.
