Anamorphic prisms are used to circularize elliptical diode laser beams. They comprise two identical prisms mounted at an incident angle close to the Brewster's angle. The incoming beam is displaced by a small lateral amount, with less than 1 degree of angular deviation.
For unmounted pairs, the degree of anamorphic magnification is determined by the angle and displacement of the prisms.

|
Every edge of these prisms is chamfered (beveled) for chipping prevention. The dimensions of these prisms are values not including chamfer. |
|
Be sure to wear laser safety goggles when checking optical path and adjusting optical axis. |
