High-Performance HOLO/OR Beam Shaping Optics Now Available Off-the-Shelf from Edmund Optics®

Edmund Optics^® now offers off-the-shelf HOLO/OR Diffractive Diffusers and Beamsplitters, delivering premium beam shaping solutions for high-power laser systems—without the delays of custom ordering.

HOLO/OR Diffractive Diffusers precisely convert collimated beams into square or circular profiles with exceptional homogeneity and minimal zero-order output—key for applications like laser welding, ablation, and medical treatment. Unlike polymer-based or micro-lens diffusers, these are engineered for high damage thresholds and consistent intensity distribution, enabling better process quality at higher laser powers.

Meanwhile, HOLO/OR Diffractive Beamsplitters split input beams into uniform spot arrays—ideal for laser scribing, 3D sensing, and fractional treatments. Optimized for Nd:YAG and CO₂ wavelengths (355 nm, 532 nm, 1064 nm, and 10.6 μm), they support faster throughput, improved repeatability, and reliable operation under high energy loads.

Both product lines are passively designed, alignment-free, and available off-the-shelf through Edmund Optics with transparent pricing—addressing a critical gap in fast-access, high-performance diffractive optics for demanding laser applications.
