Design and implementation of a dual aspheric integrated shaping element for a high-power fiber laser

A dual aspheric integrated beam shaper suitable for a high-power laser situation has been designed and realized. The model for this lens was derived theoretically and the performance was evaluated using a detailed simulation. The ultrasonic vibration assisted cutting and the high-precision grinding and polishing technology were used for the processing. The surface accuracy was less than 200 nm measured with a profiler, and the roughness was smaller than 20 nm with the help of the white light interferometer. Shaping experiments were carried out, which verified that the Gaussian beam has uniform intensity distribution with a uniformity of 85.13% in the near field and converges to a point in the far field, which is exactly as expected. It thus provides an actual selection for high-power laser shaping.
