Date Announced: 20 Jan 2016
World leader in precision laser micro-optics to present papers at Photonics West 2016, including new beam shapers used to create close to diffraction limited very small spots
Dalgety Bay, UK, 20th January 2016 – Powerphotonic, experts in the field of high precision micro-optics, is pleased to announce that it will be presenting two papers at Photonics West 2016, San Francisco.
The first paper explores the use of field mapping beam shapers for use with single mode lasers. Powerphotonic has devised a unique patent pending design approach to create a near diffraction limited shaped spot for single mode lasers using high efficiency refractive free form optics. This solution enables speckle free beam-shaping of a Gaussian laser beam by remapping the input beam to create the desired output.
The second paper will discuss how customised low-angle refractive diffusers can be used for high power laser applications. Where high powered lasers require a low diffusion angle, our second paper specifically looks at the design and fabrication of smooth and continuous customized refractive diffusers designed to maximisation of diffuser efficiency and performance, even at diffusion angles of only a few milliradians or less. These new design techniques will be used to add to PowerPhotonic’s ever expanding range of beam shaper products.
Title: Field mappers for laser material processing, Session 7, Tuesday 16th February, 1:40 PM TO 3:00 PM
Title: Customised low-angle refractive diffusers for high power laser applications, Session 9, Thursday 18th February, 10:20 AM TO 12:10 PM

About PowerPhotonic - “Enhancing Beam Performance”
PowerPhotonic is a global leader in the design and manufacture of precision micro-optics. Our business was founded with the objective of providing unsurpassed excellence in all aspects of micro-optics product realization for laser applications. Our world-class design skills are supported by an innovative and flexible manufacturing process that allows the company to design both a broad range of state-of-the art industry standard laser micro-optics products and, uniquely, to offer a low cost rapid fabrication service for creating completely freeform optical surfaces.
Founded in 2004 and headquartered in the United Kingdom, the PowerPhotonic engineering team has developed many unique technologies that allow the company to produce a wide range of precision micro-optics that cannot be economically produced by using traditional glass molding or machining techniques, with higher efficiency, superior performance and increased functional integration.
Our focus today is on providing solutions for diode laser and high power laser applications, principally for the materials processing, medical systems, optical communications and defense industries. In addition, as experts in micro-optic technology and supported by our unique fabrication process, we are well-positioned to create products that solve many of our customer’s real world problems, problems that cannot easily be addressed using traditional manufacturing techniques. This means that PowerPhotonic is uniquely positioned to meet the challenge of delivering world-class solutions for ever higher brightness, more power-efficient and more compact laser applications.
