A phase-only optical system can implement the wavefront transformation from a rotational symmetric beam to another rotational symmetric beam, which is composed of two phase-only diffraction elements. Under the Fresnel diffraction approximation, the optical transform system can be designed with the aid of the stationary phase method and the input-output method with a high accuracy.
