DJ532-40 Beam Diameter/Collimation
Posted: Sun Jul 14, 2024 4:34 pm
Firstly let me say, what an amazing project! Thank you for all of your input.
I am in the process of building the performace edition with a view to adapting it at a later stage to include a microscope objective in a similar manner to ga10's.
From what I can see, the DJ532-40 in the performance edition is uncollimated (although pretty reasonable as is). Does anyone have a reasonable measurement for the beam diameter? I'd ultimately like to expand the beam out to 6-10mm prior to entering the objective.
Also, if anyone has any experience collimating this diode, any pointers would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
