Product Recommendation: Diffractive Optical Elements (DOE)
I. Working Principle
By using microstructures to modify the transmission phase of light waves passing through the diffractive optical element, the incident light is further phase-modulated so that light is distributed into different diffraction orders. Using this characteristic, by setting the diffraction orders and object distance, interference occurs at a certain distance (usually infinity or the focal plane of a lens) to form a specific light intensity distribution.
II. Product Introduction
1. Beam Shaping DOE
Beam shaping DOE is one of the most widely used diffractive optical elements. Its function is to obtain a flat-top beam with uniform energy distribution, steep edges, and a specific shape.
2.Beam Splitting DOE
Beam splitting DOE is a precision planar optical element based on the principle of light diffraction and interference. As a core component of the new generation of beam splitting, it completely replaces the limitations of traditional prisms, coated beam splitters and other elements. With the advantages of high uniformity, high splitting accuracy and high energy utilization efficiency, it has become a key component in laser parallel processing, precision measurement, medical aesthetics, optical communication and other fields.
3. Beam Homogenizing DOE
Beam homogenizing DOE is a precision optical element based on diffractive optical phase modulation technology. It is the core component to solve the problems of uneven laser brightness, excessive central intensity and weak edge intensity. It is widely used in high-demand scenarios such as laser processing, medical treatment, detection, lighting and scientific research.
