HOLO/OR Diffractive Axicons are diffractive optical elements (DOE) that transform an input laser beam into a Bessel-like beam that can then be focused to a ring. Unlike refractive axicons, diffractive axicons do not have an apex, enabling consistent performance even with small cone angles. Additionally, their diffractive design enables thinner, more compact form factors than standard refractive axicons. HOLO/OR Diffractive Axicons are used in materials processing applications including laser cutting, drilling, and welding, as well as in laser systems as axicon resonators.
Note: Diffractive optical elements are not intended for use outside of their design wavelength. Diffractive optical elements will have decreased performance if their surfaces become dirty from oil or other substances. It is recommended to always use gloves or finger cots when handling these optics.
