Using Multispot DOE to Replicate VCSEL Patterns

Many of the latest 3D Mapping and sensing applications are using VCSEL chips with custom emitter arrangements as sources for structured light sensing technologies. These applications benefit from the high spot density over the entire field of view (FOV). Designing specially tailored diffractive optical elements (DOEs), Holo/Or can tile the FOV with a VCSEL pattern by … Continue reading

Germanium Beam Shapers for Mid- to Far-IR Broadband Applications

Germanium (Ge) broadband beam shapers can shape single mode lasers at wavelengths in the mid-IR spectrum to achieve uniform illumination profiles in various shapes including: square, round, line or rectangular. These beam shapers are ideal for MIR/FIR spectroscopy and other projection applications using broad-band MIR sources. Therefore, Holo-Or’s single window beam shapers offer diffraction-limited shaping performance in the entire … Continue reading

Medium Power Low-Cost Broadband Diffusers

Broadband Diffusers (BD) are special beam shaping flat-top diffusers. BDs are dedicated to applications where more than a single wavelength is used in the same optical path. Holo/Or designs and manufactures low-cost BD diffusers suitable for mid-power applications (under 2 J/cm2 for nano-second pulses). These BD elements have excellent thermal & environmental properties, similar to their etched fused silica products, … Continue reading

Custom LED-based Calibration Sources from FTO

A calibration source from FiberTech Optica (FTO) emits broadband light from a proprietary, actively-cooled multiple LED module, making generation of complex user-specified spectral output profiles possible. The system provides excellent output beam uniformity in both near- and far-field through the use of an integrating sphere and fiber coupling. This enables spectrally weighted calibration across the … Continue reading
