About Compact Beam Expander

MAPIS LASER & OPTICAL TECHNOLOGY Compact Beam Expander is one of the Laser Optical System Accessories, which can boost the input laser flash through a specific expansion power. It also decreases the divergence with the help of same expansion power, following a smaller paralleled beam at a significant distance. Compact Beam Expander can be used in reverse to decrease beam diameter. This is required to change the beam distance of collimated optical beams, such as laser beams.

Engineered for Precision and Flexibility

Built for demanding optical applications, the Compact Beam Expander is available in magnification ratios of 2x, 3x, 5x, and 10x. Its precision optics and adjustable focus enable high-quality beam expansion for research labs and industrial environments. The robust anodized aluminum construction and matte finish ensure durability, while custom AR coating supports operation from UV to near-IR wavelengths.

Versatile Mounting and Seamless Integration

This expander is compatible with both standard tripod and optical breadboard platforms, utilizing C-mount and SM threads for secure attachment. The device's compact size and light weight (approx. 0.15 kg) make it ideal for integration into intricate optical assemblies. Multiple beam aperture sizes and adjustable back focal length allow precise collimation control tailored to your specific laser system.

Optimized for Performance and Longevity

Engineered to withstand operating temperatures of -20C to 70C, the beam expander features AR-coated lenses for >96% transmittance and silent operation. Packaged in protective foam, it is built for longevity and dependable performance. Its design ensures easy maintenance and excellent resistance to dust and handling, supporting consistent results in both research and industrial settings.

FAQ's of Compact Beam Expander:

Q: How do I select the correct magnification ratio for my application?

A: Choose the magnification ratio (2x, 3x, 5x, or 10x) based on the desired increase in beam diameter and your optical setup's requirements. Higher ratios expand the beam more but may require larger apertures and more precise alignment. Consult your laser's specifications for optimal performance.

Q: What is the process for adjusting beam collimation with this expander?

A: The Compact Beam Expander includes back focal length adjustment, allowing you to fine-tune the collimation. Rotate the adjustment ring to achieve the sharpest, most parallel output beam. This enables precise control in laser alignment and research applications.

Q: What are the benefits of using AR-coated lenses within this beam expander?

A: AR (Anti-Reflective) coated lenses enhance light transmittance (>96% typical), reduce losses from surface reflections, and ensure consistent, high-quality beam expansion. Custom coatings are also available to optimize performance across your chosen wavelength range.

Q: Where can I mount the Compact Beam Expander in my optical setup?

A: The expander is designed for versatile mounting using either C-mount or SM threads, compatible with standard tripods and optical breadboards. This flexibility makes it ideal for laboratory benches, industrial equipment, or portable alignment systems.

Q: When is it necessary to use a beam expander in a laser system?

A: Beam expanders are necessary when you need to increase the laser beam diameter for improved collimation, reduced divergence, or covering larger work areas. They are commonly used in research, industrial alignment, and laser machining setups.

Q: What storage and maintenance conditions are recommended for this beam expander?

A: Store the beam expander in a dust-free, dry place-preferably inside its protective foam box-to maintain optical quality and prevent contamination. Periodic gentle cleaning of lenses and regular inspection of mounting threads are recommended for longevity.

Q: Which light sources are compatible with the Compact Beam Expander?

A: This expander is compatible with a variety of laser sources, including HeNe, diode, and DPSS lasers, within the 350 nm to 1100 nm wavelength range. Custom AR coatings are available if your wavelength requirements differ from standard offerings.
