ITH Option

Osela’s ITH option is a fully integrated, OEM ready laser that creates a Top Hat profile of desired dimension at the focal plane of its integrated imaging lens system. The Top Hat dimension is directly proportional to the focal length of the imaging lens (F) and the Top Hat constant (K), with no additional optical system required.

DTH Option

Osela’s DTH option is designed to create a Top Hat profile at the focal plane of a customer’s existing optical system. The Top Hat dimension and Gaussian axis are flexible and scale with the effective focal length of the system. This option has the advantage of being independent of distance between the laser and the imaging system.
