Broadband Diffusers (BDs) are an optimal solution for the homogenization of low to medium power laser beams with high efficiency, low cost at high volumes, and as can be inferred from their name, suitability for polychromatic use. A BD is an unordered micro-lens array with added randomized functions that modify the sag and curvature of … Continue reading
An optical homogenizer is an optical component that makes the intensity profile of a light beam more uniform. This means that local intensity variations in the beam profile are eliminated, and the overall envelope of the beam becomes smooth. Homogenizer working principle Homogenization is done by diffusing the light at controlled angles, scrambling the phase, … Continue reading
Many laser-based systems, especially in the life sciences, projection and projection mapping fields, require the use of more than a single wavelength, high power laser on the same optical path to achieve the desired functionality. To meet this need, Holo/Or has developed the high-power Broadband Diffuser (BD). The BD is a micro-refractive diffuser, specially designed … Continue reading
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
