GBS-UV-H Refractive Beam Shaper

The GBS-UV-H refractive beam shaper is optically designed without an internal focus, making it ideal for higher energy pulsed and CW lasers. Newport's new UV beam shaper, which is optimized for ultraviolet (UV) laser input at 248-365 nm, delivers efficient beam shaping that is required for many applications including material processing, micromachining, annealing, lithography, non-linear optics, optical data storage, and cell sorting.

The Refractive Beam Shaper produces a collimated flat-top beam by point-to-point mapping of the Gaussian input rays to redistribute the intensity to a flat top output. The collimated output beam can be easily manipulated and re-sized with conventional imaging optics. The device uses low dispersion refractive optics with high-efficiency dielectric anti-reflective coatings. Processed in a Newport Class 5 clean room to eliminate out-gassing and particulate generation, the GBS-UV-H Beam Shaper is constructed of UV-safe components.
