Abstract
A method and apparatus for exposing photosensitive recording material is presented. The invention provides for using chromatic lenses to focus polychromatic light onto recording media. The resulting chromatic aberrations contribute to exposing recording media in three dimensions. The method and apparatus presented also provide for improved quantum efficiency in the exposure of photosensitive recording material.
