Hello everyone,

I need to define a partially coherent source in Zemax, which I then want to homogenize using a light rod. The source parameters are:
    •    Size: 32 × 14 mm
    •    Divergence: 4 × 1 mrad
    •    Coherence length: 0.1 mm

I need to homogenize the beam using a rod to achieve a final beam size of 100 × 10 mm.

Is there a way to properly define such a partially coherent source in Zemax? What approach would you recommend for modeling the homogenization process?

Thanks in advance for any insights!
