Beam Shapers – laser beam converter
Another kind of beam shaper is often used in conjunction with a high-power laser diode, for example with a diode bar, to make both its beam radius and beam
Most have a beam that can be accurately approximated by a Gaussian distribution, but with a slightly narrower central maximum and longer tail. Because of the structure of laser diodes, the divergence of the beam is greater along one axis (known as the fast axi...

Refractive Beam ShapingDiffractive Beam ShapingLaser Beam IntegratorsAxicons For Generating Bessel BeamsCircularizing Beams with Cylinder LensesCircularizing Beams with Anamorphic Prism PairsDiffractive beam shapers utilize diffraction, rather than refraction, to shape the laser beam into a specific irradiance distribution. Diffractive elements employ an etching process to create a specific micro- or nanostructure in a substrate. Typically, the design wavelengths and function of the element are dependent on the height and zone spacing,...See more on edmundoptics rohm

What are Beam Shapers? In general, a beam shaper (or beam converter) is an optical device which modifies its spatial profile. For example, there are refractive and micro-optic beam shapers which
Because of the structure of laser diodes, the divergence of the beam is greater along one axis (known as the fast axis) leading to an elliptical beam shape. They also have a highly divergent beam compared
