Low Loss Beam Homogenizer

Patent pending design offers low NA, 80% few optical surfaces with a high degree of beam homogenization and at a fraction of the distance needed for current state-of-the-art homogenizers.


NeoBeam™ Field-Mapped Beam Homogenizers

The design is based upon a patent pending approach for "field-mapping" segments extracted from standard spherical, cylindrical, prism and axicon elements to produce a low NA high efficiency homogenizer.  Typical excimer laser beam homogenizers are comprised of 10 optical surfaces and therefore exhibit high losses and diffraction.  The Neoteric approach reduces the number of surfaces to only two (2)!  In addition, the design can create the homogenized field without a focused pupil which can damage downstream optical elements and the space needed in the system is a fraction of existing designs.  The homogenized fields are not limited to square or rectangular but rectangular ring and circularly homogenized fields are as well realized with the approach.

 The design concept is available for immediate use for laser and other light integration applications.
