Laser Beam Shaping [PDF]

open access: yesOptics and Photonics News, 2003
Laser beam shaping, the art of controlling the irradiance and phase profile of a laser's output, is an enabling technology used in industrial applications including semiconductor lithography, circuit component trimming and laser printing.

Superresolution laser beam shaping

Applied Optics, 2004
The superresolution technique is well known for its ability to compress the central diffractive spot that is smaller than the Airy diffractive spot. In this paper, we extend the superresolution technique for different laser beam shaping. A complete set of superresolution diffractive elements is developed for the flat-top beam shaping, the single-circle

Laser Beam Shaping

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2008
We consider the promising properties of very simple Diffractive Optical Elements (DOE) for reshaping the intensity profile of a laser beam. The first type of DOE that we have considered is a phase aperture which consists in a transparent plate with a circular relief introducing a π phase shift in the central region of the incident beam.

Laser beam shaping profiles and propagation

Applied Optics, 2006
We consider four families of functions--the super-Gaussian, flattened Gaussian, Fermi-Dirac, and super-Lorentzian--that have been used to describe flattened irradiance profiles. We determine the shape and width parameters of the different distributions, when each flattened profile has the same radius and slope of the irradiance at its half-height point,

Ultrashort laser pulse beam shaping

Applied Optics, 2003
We calculated the temporal and spatial characteristics of an ultrashort laser pulse propagating through a diffractive beam-shaping system that converts a Gaussian beam into a beam with a uniform irradiance profile that was originally designed for continuous waves [Proc. SPIE 2863, 237(1996)].

Wavelength tunable laser beam shaping

Optics Letters, 2011
Laser beam shaping by phase-only transformations, often referred to as field mapping, has for a long time been considered wavelength dependent. In this Letter we outline a simple mathematical argument that shows how the problem may be formulated in a wavelength tunable manner, requiring only a minor adjustment in the observation plane.

Plasmonics for Laser Beam Shaping

IEEE Transactions on Nanotechnology, 2010
This paper reviews our recent work on laser beam shaping using plasmonics. We demonstrated that by integrating properly designed plasmonic structures onto the facet of semiconductor lasers, their divergence angle can be dramatically reduced by more than one orders of magnitude, down to a few degrees. A plasmonic collimator consisting of a slit aperture

Lossless laser beam shaping

Journal of the Optical Society of America A, 1996
The Fresnel approximation is used in the design of a lens that turns a beam with one intensity distribution into a beam with a different distribution at the focal plane of a Fourier transform lens. In general, this cannot be done exactly, so one must be satisfied with approximate solutions to this problem.
