Where to Buy Beam Shapers

WOP offers beam shapers for various applications. Our circular grating / flat axicon is a space-variant retarder that transforms a Gaussian beam into a Bessel-Gauss beam.

Main features:

• converts Gaussian beam to a flat-top beam
• high damage threshold: 63.4 J/cm² at 1064 nm, 10 ns and 2.2 J/cm² at 1030 nm, 212 fs
• wavelength range from 300 nm to 2 μm
• conversion efficiency up to 70% (wavelength-dependent)
• large aperture (up to 15 mm; standard is 6 mm)

This device is made 100% suitable for your application – designed according to your laser beam specifications.

Focuslight Technologies produces compact beam shapers (CBS) based on high-grade micro-optics, generating line-shaped or square laser beams. Each of these two beam geometries is available in various sizes.

The latest LIMO beam shaping module provides a budget-friendly way to complement any basic equipment for laser application development, in both scientific and industrial fields.

The features of the CBS:

• slim-design aluminum housing (diameter of 30.5 mm; 80 mm long)
• inhomogeneity across entire area < 7.5%
• line-shaped and square beam geometry
• SMA905 connection

Frankfurt Laser Company offers beam shapers based on diffractive optical elements. These have a high diffraction efficiency of e.g. 70% at 633 nm.

Single-piece top hat beam shapers convert a circular Gaussian laser beam profile to a uniform flat-top beam spot. We offer beam shaping lenses that generate uniform profiles of round, rectangular or line shapes in the focal plane of the focusing optics.

PowerPhotonic offers a wide range of high-quality, high-power handling beam shapers for both single and multimode lasers. These beam shapers can be customised to suit any need. From circles, square and lines for ultrashort laser material processing to square flat tops for laser projection, PowerPhotonic is the number one provider for optical beam shapers.

Edmund Optics offers laser beam shaping solutions to collimate laser beams, transform beam profiles, convert beam shapes, and much more. Flat top beam shapers, used to convert Gaussian beams into flat top beams with a uniform intensity distribution, are available optimized for laser wavelengths associated with Nd:YAG, fiber, and CO₂ lasers. Cylinder Lenses, offered in broadband and laser line versions, are ideal for laser machining or medical applications, which require laser light shaping in only one axis. Slow axis collimators and fast axis collimators are also available, which are ideal for collimated laser bars and laser diodes, respectively.

Cailabs offers a wide range of beam shapers for various applications and laser types. Top-hat beam shapers with passive beam stabilization feature are available for single-mode lasers, especially ultra-short pulse lasers. We also offer beam shaping modules and laser heads with low focus shift and high depth of field for high-power multi-kW lasers. Reflective axicons are also available for high-quality Bessel beam generation.

Our beam shaping modules and laser heads for welding applications shape high-power CW lasers in symmetrical and asymmetrical ways. Their reflective design supports very high power (up to 20 kW) and minimizes focus shifts, therefore offering improved quality and efficiency in laser beam welding.

There are also the beam shaping modules for ultrashort pulse lasers, providing high-quality top-hat shapes with exceptional depth of field and sharpness at the diffraction limit. The modules include a mode-cleaning feature that passively stabilize the beam, ensuring a stable and high-quality process.
