Design & Analysis of Diffractive Splitter Generating a Light Mark

Separate (focused) beams or light points are of interest for a wide range of applications, whether for manufacturing processes, for special fiber coupling, for face recognition systems or light marker generation. Each of these applications has different and very specific requirements. VirtualLab Fusion offers you a powerful yet easy-to-use software package to design, simulate and analyze such beam splitter systems. Using a simple diffractive beam splitter system to generate a paraxial light mark, we will present a typical workflow and describe and demonstrate various design, modeling, simulation and analysis aspects that maybe relevant for such tasks.
