contents Optical super-oscillation enables far-field super-resolution imaging beyond diffraction limits. However, the existing super-oscillatory lens for the spatial super-resolution imaging system still confronts critical limitations in performance due to the lack of a more advanced design method and the limited design degree of freedom. Here, we propose an optical super-oscillatory diffractive neural network, i.e., SODNN, that can achieve super-resolved spatial resolution for imaging beyond the diffraction limit with superior performance over existing methods. SODNN is constructed by utilizing diffractive layers to implement optical interconnections and imaging samples or biological sensors to implement nonlinearity, which modulates the incident optical field to create optical super-oscillation effects in 3D space and generate the super-resolved focal spots. By optimizing diffractive layers with 3D optical field constraints under an incident wavelength size of $λ$, we achieved a super-oscillatory spot with a full width at half maximum of 0.407$λ$ in the far field distance over 400$λ$ without side-lobes over the field of view, having a long depth of field over 10$λ$. Furthermore, the SODNN implements a multi-wavelength and multi-focus spot array that effectively avoids chromatic aberrations. Our research work will inspire the development of intelligent optical instruments to facilitate the applications of imaging, sensing, perception, etc.
