Abstract
Following a period of intensive R&D in the 1990s, supported in part by national and EU funding programs, new technology and commercial services in micro-optics and diffractive optics have become available in Europe. A number of new companies offering commercial products and services have been established. This paper summarises the status and outlook of this technology.
