Dear Zemax community,

I am building upon your 'How to design a Gaussian to Top Hat beam shaper' tutorial.

Instaed of TOP HAT, my goal is to create a Uuniform Radial Distribution at distance of 1M from the  beam shaper.

i.e my goal is to create a uniform distribution on a sagment from a rolled screen. But the ZPL calculates the desired distribuion up on a flat wall, so what should be the distribution up on a “Flat screen” , so it generates a unifrom radial on a rolled sceen ?

 

Any suggestions are welcome and appreciated.

Thank you very much, Tali

@Tali.mutat 

 

Do you want to achieve your goal with a single element or could you relay the top-hat distribution and make use of the field curvature of the relay?

Take care,

 

David

Hi David

I want to achieve it with a single element, dut to lack of space in my system.
