| UV Laser Beam Expanders - BXUV | |
BXUV Galilean beam expanders optimize both clear aperture and magnification ratio in as short a space as possible while also eliminating the risk of focused retroreflections. The compact, air-spaced design can be used either for beam expansion or beam reduction.

| UV-VIS High Energy Laser Beam Expanders - HEBX | |
| HEBX high-energy Galilean beam expanders optimize both clear aperture and magnification ratio in as short a space as possible while also eliminating the risk of focused retroreflections. The compact, air-spaced design can be used either for beam expansion or beam reduction. It is manually adjustable, allowing for collimation at a variety of wavelengths.

| Precision Mounted Anamorphic Prisms - AP - APUV | |
| CVI's AP and APUV anamorphic prism pairs reshape the elliptical beam inherently produced by the asymmetric radiation pattern of diode and excimer lasers. The input face of each prism is aligned to near Brewster's angle so an AR coating is not required if the input light is p-polarized or unpolarized.
CVI stocks mounted prism pairs with aspect ratios from 2:1 to 6:1 for one-dimensional (anamorphic) expansion or reduction of any laser beam. A ¼-20 thread mounting hole is centered on the base.

| CW Laser Beam Expander VIS-NIR- CWBX | |
CWBX Galilean design works well for any visible or near-IR laser system as a great general purpose beam expander. High CW damage threshold makes this ideal for CW laser processing applications.

| Dual Wavelength Nd:YAG Beam Expanders - DWBX | |
| Dual wavelength DWBXbeam expanders These dual-wavelength beam expanders have the same focal length at 1064 nm and at 532 or 633 nm. They can collimate Nd:YAG and HeNe beams at the same lens spacing. DWBX are corrected for spherical aberration at 1064nm and 532/633nm and for coma at 1064nm. Because they are air-spaced, they can be used in high power Nd:YAG applications. The coatings are designed to give low reflection losses.

| Precision Laser Beam Expanders -LBM | |
| Precision laser beam expanders produce peak-to-peak wavefront distortion of less than λ/4 in expansion ratios of 3×, 10×, 20×, or 30×. Larger output beams with reduced beam divergence for holographic and other distant illumination applications.

| Zoom Beam Expander - LBV | |
Zoom beam expander is ideal for visible, near-IR, and tunable sources. The focus ring is used to collimate the input beam, and the zoom ring then allows adjustment of the output beam diameter, from 2.5× to 10×.
