A laser machining device includes a pulsed laser generator, an accommodation chamber, a bandwidth broadening unit and a pulse compression unit. The pulsed laser generator is configured to emit a pulsed laser. The accommodation chamber has a gas inlet. The bandwidth broadening unit is disposed in the accommodation chamber, and is configured to broaden a frequency bandwidth of the pulsed laser to obtain a broad bandwidth pulsed laser. The pulse compression unit is disposed in the accommodation chamber. The bandwidth broadening unit and the pulse compression unit are arranged in order along a laser propagation path, and the pulse compression unit is configured to compress a pulse duration of the broad bandwidth pulsed laser.

This disclosure provides a composite beam generator and a method of performing powder melting or sintering in additive manufacturing process using the same. The composite beam generator comprises: a beam splitter for splitting a beam into a first directed beam and a second directed beam; a beam shaper for shaping a transverse energy distribution profile of the second directed beam to non-circular; at least one beam delivery unit for guiding the first directed beam or the second directed beam; and a beam combiner for receiving the first directed beam and the second directed beam, and respectively generating a first output beam and a second output beam, and combining them into the composite beam.

A dual pulsed light generation apparatus including a polarization beam splitter (PBS), a first polarization reflector, and a second polarization reflector is provided. The PBS has a first plane, a second plane, and a dividing interface located between the first plane and the second plane. The PBS is located in the transmission path of an incident pulsed light and used for dividing the incident pulsed light into a first polarization pulsed light reflected by the dividing interface and a second polarization pulsed light passing through the dividing interface. The first polarization reflector is disposed opposite to the first plane and transforms the first polarization pulsed light into a third polarization pulsed light passing through the dividing interface. The first polarization reflector is disposed opposite to the second plane.
