Abstract
A reflective beam conditioner includes a monolithic body having two or more mirrors and at least one alignment feature. The at least one alignment feature has a predetermined orientation or position with respect to at least one of the two or more mirrors. The two or more mirrors are configured such that, in use, a beam reflects once sequentially off of each of the mirrors. A method of manufacturing such a reflective beam conditioner includes providing a monolithic body. The method further includes restraining the monolithic body to a machining fixture. The method further includes forming a first mirror, a second mirror, and an alignment feature in the monolithic body with the monolithic body restrained in the machining fixture.
