Abstract

The invention discloses a beam shaping illumination system of a semiconductor laser array, which comprises the semiconductor laser array, an optical system for transforming beam divergence angles of a fast axis, a device for deflecting angles of beams in the fast axis direction, and an optical system for transforming divergence angles of a slow axis and deflecting the beams in the slow axis direction. The system has a key point that the superposition effect of Gaussian beam parts of a plurality of laser units is formed in a distant field by controlling the deflection degree of beam transmission axes of each laser unit in the fast axis and slow axis directions respectively so as to construct illumination beams according with field coverage requirements. The system has the characteristics of high efficiency, simple structure, low cost, integration and practicability, and is particularly applicable as an illumination light source of area array imaging laser radar and active laser illumination detecting systems.
