Abstract
The generation of uniform focal intensity profiles is important for a number of applications, including laser-plasma interaction experiments . We report on a focusing system that uses a novel binary-phase optic capable of producing efficient two-dimensional uniform top-hat intensi ty optical and x-ray profiles.
