Purchase the compact beam shaper a|AiryShape for focused Top-Hat Profiles

The a|AiryShape is a compact Top-Hat beam shaper and optimized for the wavelength range from 300 nm to 1600 nm. Due to its high-precision mount, it is always perfectly aligned and features a diffraction-limited wavefront. In combination with a focusing lens, the a|AiryShape enables the conversion of collimated Gaussian beams into focused beam profiles. Thanks to its working principle, not only one Top-Hat beam profile can be generated in the focal plane of the lens, but also Donut and Beam Waist profiles in addition to Top-Hat profiles of various sizes. The size of the profiles can be scaled by means of the focal length. Their generation depends on the quality of the input beam. For best results, a perfectly collimated beam with minimized wavefront aberrations is required. For collimating we therefore recommend the a|AspheriColl. A special feature of the a|AiryShape is its extremely compact design. With a length of only 17.3 mm, it can be easily integrated into existing (even non-system) set-ups. Thanks to its clever optical design, it can also reduce the working distance. Buy the beam shaper a|AiryShape, available in the design wavelengths 355 nm, 532 nm, 632 nm, 780 nm and 1064 nm, for your application e.g. in material processing.
