Design and Diffractive Modeling on a Single Lens Shaper

Conference ·
OSTI ID:1021880

This paper introduces a single lens laser beam shaper which is capable of redistributing a beam with a Gaussian profile to a super-Gaussian profile. Both geometrical and diffractive optical modelings are performed on a typical single lens shaper that shows significant reduction of destructive effects on the beam uniformity over those with sharp-edges.
