I have a 532nm laser with a beam diameter of 1.2mm at the point where I
need to place the spatial filter. On the beams exit from the spatial
filter I need to expand the beam to 8" diameter at a distance of 22"
Question:
1. What magnification objective do I require to acheive this ?
2. What size pinhole do I require ?
If 1 & 2 don't apply, is it just impractical to acheive this sort of
beam diameter at such a short distance?
Many thanks for any help.
Do you want it to be collimated when you're done, or just spread out in
a cone?
