Soft Apertures

 

   
APPLICATIONS
:

Dependent on diffractive optical element soft aperture can be used for reducing damage in high power laser amplifiers and beam reshaping. In photography it may have an effect of softening edges or reduction of the ringing, compared to the apertures with the hard edges. This can be done by changing the number of phase levels, density of patches in a material of the diffracting element or in diffractive gratings. The soft aperture can be manufactured in crystals, ceramics or metals. The process of manufacturing of diffractive element includes laser drilling and photolithography.
