Abstract
The possibility of producing film axicons with large focal lengths is experimentally demonstrated. The manufacturing technology includes vacuum deposition of chalcogenide glass layers of variable thickness, which varies linearly depending on the substrate radius. Axicons with focal lengths up to 15 m are obtained.
