Axicon Lens, Transform Gaussian Beams Into Bessel Beams, Ring-Shaped Beam
Overview: An axicon, also known as a rotationally symmetric prism, is a lens that features one conical surface and one plano surface. When converting a collimated beam into a ring, the plano side of the axicon should face the collimated source. When used with a collimated Gaussian beam, Axicon lenses create an approximation of a Bessel beam. Although the ring diameter increases and decreases proportionally to the distance between the axicon and the image, the ring thickness remains the same. Axicons are ideal for measurement and alignment, research, and medical applications requiring a ring-shaped laser output.
