Abstract

The aim of this paper is to design a diffractive optical element based on the laser junction numerical model. We assumed a ?long? laser junction emitting quasi-monochromatic, spatially incoherent light that corresponds to the high power laser. Diffractive optics approach can be used due to the narrowband illumination. The especially designed numerical junction model was experimentally verified. Then a numerically designed diffractive focusing element was manufactured and tested in the experimental setup. This paper includes theoretical investigations, numerical modeling as well as experimental data.
