LBS-300HP-NIR Beam Splitter for High Power Laser Beam Profilers
LBS-300HP-NIR Beam Splitter for High Power Laser Beam Profilers
The LBS-300HP-NIR is a patent pending technology beam splitter for high power lasers that allows measuring NIR (~1064 nm) focused or collimated laser beam profiles up to 5 kW or 15 MW/cm². It operates by reflecting a fraction of the incoming beam through the front surface of each of a pair of orthogonally oriented wedges. Less than 0.0001% of the beam is reflected towards the Beam Profiler Camera.
- Uniform attenuation of any beam shape
- Preserves the polarization and overall profile

Features
LBS-300-HP-NIR Overview
The LBS-300HP-NIR beam splitter allows camera-based beam profiling for high power lasers.
Uniform Attenuation of Any Beam Shape
Each optical path through the LBS-300HP-NIR provides uniform attenuation of any beam shape (Gaussian, flat-top, doughnut, etc.) while preserving the polarization and overall profile of the incoming laser beam thus providing accurate sample of incident beam. A 1.035-40 thread is provided behind each wedge along the axis of the output beam. These can be used to directly mount accessories with 1” lens tubes such as beam dumps or power/energy sensors.
Applications
- Laser cutter alignment
- Additive Manufacturing
- Selective laser melting (SLM)
- Direct metal laser melting (DMLM)
- Laser powder bed fusion (LPBF)
- 3D printing
