What is the principle behind capacity expansion of a box-type beam splitter
Basically, beam expanders work by using a couple of lenses to make the laser beam wider and, at the same time, cut down on how much it diverges. Laser beam expanders increase the diameter of a collimated input beam to a larger collimated output beam for applications such as laser scanning, interferometry, and remote sensing. On the one hand there is the Kepler principle which consists of two focusing lens groups. The second lens group is positioned behind the common focus point and collimates the divergent light again. a laser beam) into two (or sometimes more) beams, which may or may not have the same optical power (radiant flux).
