A DateRange Table Valued function
The function is an inline table-valued function (or sometimes called a parameterised view) so it can be used just like a view or a table but needs parameters. It generates a single-column table of datetime2 with rows differing by any multiple of any of the dateparts that SQL Server provides.

I realize that this is a bit of a lengthy script for something that you can use a one liner in the power shell:
Example:
