Slow-Axis Collimation

The Slow-Axis Collimation optic is a highly efficient means of forming the beam in the slow-axis of diode lasers. It is available either as a monolithic array of cylindrical lenses or as a single lens. All of our optics are produced using high-quality optical glass. The exacting product tolerances guarantee efficient collimation of the light from all emitters and compatibility with laser bars and stacks In order to offer the best solution for your application INGENERIC provides a broad spectrum of Slow-Axis Collimation optics off the shelf. With respect to length or support structures the lenses can be tailored to your specific needs.

Special Purpose Optics / Systems You require a special optical design or intensity distribution?We offer customized solutions starting with the individual aspherical lens with an optimized design, through to complete optical systems, tailored to meet the specifications of your application.We always remain true to our own principle: Regardless of whether an individual optic or a complete system is concerned, we will put it through a test cycle which is identical to its subsequent application.Thus, we combine optimum design and replicable, dependable quality, to ensure maximum customer benefit.

High-precision Aspheres and Acylinders The use of aspheres and acylinders offers substantial advantages: minimization of aberrations, increase in efficiency, reduction of optical elements and weight of the optical system. With its unique molding technique, INGENERIC combines cost effectiveness with highest serial precision. Molded optics can be structured/curved on one or both sides with a large degree of geometrical freedom and a flexible lateral contour. The lateral dimensions range approximately from 2.0 mm to 5.0 mm. Structures in the sub-millimeter range are feasible. Acylinders with larger dimensions are manufactured by INGENERIC’s well-proven grinding and polishing technology. The dimensions of these large acylinders can reach 60.0 mm in length and 120.0 mm in height. This technology is particularly adept for the manufacture of fused silica optics for applications with high power densities.

Microlens-Arrays with superior form accuracy are used for applications, where reliability and highest efficiency are crucial criteria. They range from beam transformation for fiber coupling over the homogenization of laser light up to the efficient combination of laser stacks of identical wavelength. The lateral dimensions of the arrays range from some millimeters in the micro-scale up to 30 millimeters for the macro-scale. The dimension of the array structures are typically in the sub-millimeter-range. With its unique production technique, INGENERIC is able to keep the form accuracy of the arrays within the submicron range. Advantages superior beam shaping efficient transformation and homogenization monolithic structure highes transmission due to minimized transition zones typical facet of 400um long term stability
