A Guide to Laser Beam Shaping Techniques
The characteristic properties of a laser beam can be modified by beam-shaping techniques to meet the demands of specific applications. In order to achieve a desirable beam profile that is maintained over the intended propagation distance, beam shapers redistribute the irradiance of an optical beam with appropriate adjustments of its phase.
