Design of low wave front differential amplification beam expanding system based on double glued lens
Laser beam expansion systems are widely used in various fields. To achieve variable magnification beam expansion
this study employs a three-component mechanically compensated design
incorporating a double-cemented lens group made of BK7 and F2 glass to enhance image quality in a 2~6.4× optical system. Using Zemax software
the system is optimized with a 632.8 nm laser source
refining the focal lengths
initial spacing
and radii of the optical components. Eight expansion ratios are selected
with the total system length constrained within 250 mm. Various aberrations are optimized
and the results demonstrate excellent imaging performance with well-controlled field curvature and distortion. The laser divergence angle is less than 0.05°
indicating good collimation. Tolerance analysis shows minimal impact on beam expansion performance
while the optical path difference of approximately 0.1 wavelength confirms high phase consistency across different light paths. The proposed system successfully achieves variable magnification beam expansion with imaging quality meeting design requirements.
