Title: A Single-Lens Laser Beam Shaper for Uniform Flat-Top Profiles

Journal Article · · Applied Optics
OSTI ID:955549

A novel design is presented for a simple laser beam shaping system. Unlike earlier reports and designs, we prove it is possible to convert a laser beam from a non-uniform profile to a uniform flat-top distribution with a single aspherical lens.
