  • Publication number: 20220181836
    Abstract: A diode-pumped solid state laser system and a method of diode-pumping a solid state laser in which the emitter beamlets in the diode bar are directed at a beam transformation optical element which includes a continuous twisted surface to produce a uniform and symmetrised beam in the fast field which is then focused to match an input pump area of the gain medium of the solid state laser. Embodiments to square and rectangular flat-top intensity distributions are described using a Fourier lens and a set of cylindrical orthogonal lenses.

  • Patent number: 10274738
    Abstract: A field mapping optical system and method for converting a light beam having a known spatially coherent first optical field to a second optical field with a required intensity distribution and flat wavefront at a desired distance from the system, by creating an intermediate optical field, between the first and second optical fields, the intermediate optical field being derived from the inverse Fourier transform of the second optical field. The optical system provides a compact and simplified field mapper.
