Abstract
The design of an optical element for laser beam line expansion is described. The element which bears some resemblance to a prism with a small radius at its apex expands the laser beam in one direction only. The technique for designing such a lens is given together with examples of lenses having different rates of divergence.Year: 1987 PMID: 20490126 DOI: 10.1364/AO.26.003705
