Problems solved by technology

At present, there are many methods for beam shaping, including macro lens, micro lens, liquid crystal light valve space and traditional phase subunit shaping technology, etc. These shaping technologies also have some problems, such as high adjustment accuracy of lens group and single output light field mode , the uniformity is not high enough; especially the traditional phase element is a single etching plate, and the element has high requirements on the incident beam. When it is used, the incident beam must fill the entire light-passing area; and must meet the wavefront shape and shape of the actual incident beam. Only when the wavefront shape and other characteristics of the input beam are designed to be strictly consistent can the output light field reach the design value; it also has high requirements for the stability of the incident light source. Such problems lead to restrictions on its use occasions. The use of skills is also very demanding

Abstract

The invention relates to a beam shaping device. The beam shaping device comprises beam shaping units which are distributed in an array mode, wherein each beam shaping unit comprises a plurality of phase sub units; and each beam shaping unit can independently realize beam shaping. The beam shaping device is used for acquiring device phase distribution data by a phase inversion algorithm according to the requirements of beam far fields on light intensity distribution, and an acquired phase distribution form is formed on the device by an etching method or an impressing method, so that the beam shaping device which can realize any shapes or meets the different requirements on the light intensity distribution, particularly, the beam shaping device capable of acquiring uniform light intensity distribution can be constructed. The beam shaping device can be used for transformation and shaping of light source outgoing beams of hot light sources, solid lasers, excimer lasers, semiconductor lasers and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a beam shaping device, in particular to a beam shaping device with an array phase structure. Background technique [0002] Generally, when using a laser, it is expected that the intensity of the emitted beam has a Gaussian distribution, and the Gaussian distribution of most beams is not always ideal. Only solid-state lasers are easier to obtain Gaussian beams, such as the beams of excimer lasers are usually very unsatisfactory. Obvious intensity fluctuations can be observed, the beam is always asymmetrical, and the shape of the spot is irregular, and the intensity distribution of different pulsed beams may be different, and there are no rules to follow. In most application fields, the intensity distribution of the light field is required to be stable, and the spot size, shape and intensity distribution can be controlled freely, especially to achieve regular and stable spot shape and uniform distribution of light intensity. At ...
