Integrated diffractive and refractive elements for spectrum shaping

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Diffractive elements can be designed for spectrum shaping in the Fourier or Fresnel plane by iterative methods. It is necessary to use a Fourier lens and the wavelength for which the diffractive elements were designed to get the required spectrum shaping at the Fourier plane. Using a different wavelength will cause chromatic aberration. We deal with the combination of refractive and diffractive elements and two or more different diffractive elements on the same element to get appropriate beam shaping of light sources with a multiple spectral output. Simulations are preformed that transform the profile of a He–Ne laser with a Nd:YAG laser source, and shape the trapezoidal beam profile of an excimer laser into a Gaussian beam is also considered.
