Abstract:

Using ray-tracing method, the performance of the Hyperboloid Cylinder-plane Lens(HCPL) used to collimate laser diode beams are showed. Then, the influences of every parameter on the performance of the HCPL are discussed. The consequence in this paper may be used to design a collimating system with mico-hyperboloid cylinder-plane lens that will considerably decrease the diverging angle of diode laser in fast axis and will be build up high quality beam.

Key words: laser techniques, collimation, ray-tracing, hyperboloid cylinder-plane
