Discovered in 2010 in the Kastler Brossel Laboratory, a French research laboratory specializing in fundamental physics of quantum systems, Multi-Plane Light Conversion (MPLC) was originally meant for multimode quantum optics. It is based on the succession of transverse phase profiles, similar to highly complex lenses, separated by a specific propagation distance. And because it “is a very low loss process,” MPLC can combine and shape multiple light beams. The passive nature of this technology means it can be integrated in systems where reliability is critical.
The Multi-Plane Light Conversion (MPLC) main characteristics are:
Free-form beam shaping through succession of spatial phase profiles and propagation
Passive beam shaping with no intrinsic loss
Reflective implementation, can handle high power / energy
Multiple beams can be shaped simultaneously
