LC (Low Cost) Fixed YAG Beam Expanders are simple 2-element, cost-effective solutions to beam expansion.

A new generation of compact, cost-effective ultraviolet (UV) lasers is allowing more applications to benefit from the increased precision of UV wavelengths.

Monolithic Reflective Beam Expanders are ideal for applications requiring broadband or achromatic beam expansion.

Are standard beam expanders not meeting your application requirements? Learn how to design your own beam expander using stock optics at Edmund Optics.

Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensors are used to test the transmitted wavefront error of laser beam expanders, predicting the real-world performance of the beam expander.

Sliding focusing mechanisms for laser beam expanders cause less beam wander than rotating focusing mechanisms, but they use more complex mechanics and are typically more expensive.

サブオングストロームの表面粗さをもつスーパーポリッシュ加工の光学部品は精密なレーザーオプティクスアプリケーションに最適です。

Subsurface damage in optical components can lead to increased absorption and scatter, reducing system performance.

Superpolished optics with ultra-low surface roughness minimize scatter in optical systems, which is critical in sensitive laser applications.

UV, IR, 広帯域, 及び超短パルスのレーザーは、分光解析からマイクロマシニング、そしてレーザー手術に至る非常に幅広い用途に必要不可欠です。しかしながら、こうした不可視レーザー用のビーム整形オプティクス、例えばビームエキスパンダーなどを見つけるのは比較的困難です。
