Poor man's PIAA Guyon, 2003 Image credit: Martinache Replace aspheric optics by patterned vector phase elements Only works for one handedness of polarization but is order of
magnitude cheaper Only works narrowband
Aspheric pupil remapping optics
It is possible to build almost any phase pattern up to 100% bandwidth
