Alignment reference device

Patent ·
OSTI ID:6945747

An alignment reference device provides a collimated laser beam that minimizes angular deviations therein. A laser-beam source outputs the beam into a single mode optical fiber. The output end of the optical fiber acts as a source of radiant energy and is positioned at the focal point of a lens system where the focal point is positioned within the lens. The output beam reflects off a mirror back to the lens that produces a collimated beam.
