Problems solved by technology

On the one hand, this technology deflects the optical path to form a non-coaxial optical path. On the other hand, every part of the light spot must be reflected during the reflection process, and the efficiency will be reduced.

Embodiment 1

[0021] Example 1, the beam is folded 5 times.

[0022] (1) if figure 1 As shown, the strip semiconductor laser forms a 10mm×0.8mm linear spot with a divergence angle of 0.2°×2.4° after being collimated by the microlens array along the fast and slow axes. The thickness of each reflective prism in the array should be 2mm, and the number of microreflectors should be 5.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for shaping light beams of a semiconductor laser array, belonging to the field of laser technology applications. Background technique [0002] The optical parameter product is an important index to measure the laser beam. The optical parameter product is the product of the diameter of the beam and its far-field divergence angle. When a laser beam is transmitted in a general optical system, the optical parameter product of the beam is constant. Semiconductor lasers are more and more widely used due to their small size, high power, and high electro-optical conversion efficiency. The widely used multi-quantum-well (MQW) semiconductor laser light emission has the following characteristics: First, the geometric size of the semiconductor laser light-emitting cavity is asymmetric, and the horizontal and vertical directions are 100-150 microns and 1 micron, respectively. The field distribution is in the shape of an astigmat...
