In
its broadest sense, a beam expander is any optical system
designed to increase the diameter of a laser beam. In
most cases, the term is taken to mean a telescope designed
to take a small-diameter collimated beam input beam
and produce a larger diameter collimated output beam,
thus reducing the divergence of the beam. The beam expander
consists of a negative input lens and a positive objective.
The expansion factor is the ratio of the focal length
of the two lenses.
