Request InfoFocuslight Switzerland SABeam homogenizers for use with high-power lasers are available from Suss MicroOptics SA. The company offers imaging and nonimaging types, both of which use either cross-cylindrical or square microlens arrays to divide the incident beam into beamlets, which are then passed through a spherical Fresnel lens to be overlapped at the homogenization focal plane. Parallel bundles of rays converge in the homogenization plane where 2-D Fourier transformation takes place. The intensity pattern in the plane is related to the spatial frequency spectra generated by the microlens array entering the Fourier...See full productRelated content from Photonics MediaPRODUCTSPhotonics Spectra March 2024 IssueLaser Power DetectorThe HP100A-50KW-GD from Gentec-EO is a laser power detector designed for high-power laser and laser system manufacturers, factories that cut thick metal parts with high-power lasers, and military...Photonics.com 6/26/2023Beam ProfilerThe high-power NFScan diverging beam profiler from Photonics Automation outputs up to 500 W for real-time beam profiling for diverging sources sized <1 mm, such as fiber coupled lasers; single...Photonics.com 2/2/2024Laser Phase ModulatorExail’s low Vπ LiNbO3 phase modulator was designed for high-power laser applications.
