Beam generating apparatus
First Claim
1. A beam generating apparatus comprising:
- a laser light source, outputting a laser beam;
a speckle suppressing module, comprising;
a first biconic lens, disposed on a transmission path of the laser beam;
a diffuser, disposed on the transmission path of the laser beam from the first biconic lens; and
a second biconic lens, disposed on the transmission path of the laser beam from the diffuser;
a light homogenizing module, disposed on the transmission path of the laser beam from the second biconic lens, wherein the laser beam is transmitted to the first biconic lens, the diffuser, the second biconic lens and the light homogenizing module in sequence; and
a driving unit, driving the diffuser to move with respect to the laser beam so that a ratio of M squared of the laser beam exiting from the second biconic lens in a first direction to M squared of the laser beam exiting from the second biconic lens in a second direction is greater than 2, wherein the first direction is substantially perpendicular to the second direction.

Abstract
A beam generating apparatus includes a laser light source, a speckle suppressing module, a light homogenizing module and a driving unit. The laser light source outputs a laser beam. The speckle suppressing module includes two biconic lenses and a diffuser. The first biconic lens is disposed on a transmission path of the laser beam. The diffuser is located on the transmission path of the laser beam between the first and second biconic lenses. The light homogenizing module is disposed on the transmission path of the laser beam from the second biconic lens. The driving unit drives the diffuser to move with respect to the laser beam so that the ratio of the M2 of the laser beam exiting from the second biconic lens in a first direction to the M2 thereof in a second direction is greater than 2, wherein the two directions are substantially perpendicular to each other.
