Overview: Laser Beam Expander are optical devices which increases the
diameter of the input beam to produce a larger output, but they not
only increase the diameter of a collimated laser beam, they also
decrease beam divergence. Used with collimated light, they have
important applications in remote sensing, interferometry, and laser
scanning. A beam expander consists of two lenses. First, the beam is diverged
with a short focal length lens and then the diverging beam is
re-collimated with a larger beam waist and smaller divergence. The
lenses are positioned like in an inverted telescope. The light
enters in the eyepiece lens and emerges from the objective lens. These fixed-magnification laser beam expanders are offered with
optics that have either narrowband or broadband AR coatings besides
355nm.
