Abstract :
Implementation of a beam shaping system, whereby an arbitrary array of spots is generated, is proposed. The suggested beam shaping generator which is based on the Gerchberg-Saxton algorithm, contains two phase only filters and thus yields very high power throughput. The flexibility of the suggested approach is demonstrated with some computer simulations
