Problems solved by technology

[0006] At present, there are three types of beam shaping devices for semiconductor lasers. One is the cylindrical lens to collimate and shape the angle in the fast axis direction. The adjustment tolerance of the cylindrical lens is small, and it is difficult to process the focal length very small.
The other uses a single lens to collimate the output beam of the semiconductor laser. This semiconductor laser beam shaping device has a simple structure, convenience and economy, but the effect is poor, the degree of collimation is low, and the negative effects brought by aberrations. Difficult to collimate long-distance laser beams
There is also a method of collimating the output beam of the semiconductor laser using a transmitting telescope, that is, using a short focal length lens to focus the Gaussian beam in advance to obtain a very small waist spot, and then using a long focal length lens to improve its directivity. A good collimation effect can be obtained. The main disadvantages of the semiconductor laser beam shaping device are complex structure, high cost and large volume.
