General Optics
Diffractive Optical Elements (DOE)
Transform Gaussian laser beams into other intensity distributions to achieve optimal results in a variety of materials processing applications with Coherent DOEs.
Coherent DOEs are built for use in demanding industrial applications – high-power laser welding, PCB drilling, glass cutting, solar cell manufacturing, and more – and are characterized by high efficiency, low stray light, and high damage threshold.
DOE Fabrication Capabilities
Specify DOEs with various functional capabilities, including a top hat, rectangular, or ring beam shaper, and 1D/2D beam splitter or arbitrary ratio beam splitter.
