Abstract

The invention relates to a method for homogenization of the output beam profile of a multimode optical waveguide (). The method comprises the following method steps: The invention furthermore relates to a device for carrying out the method. At least one splitting device () which is designed to split input radiation () over two or more beam paths (I-IV), at least one modulator () which is designed for modulating the radiation in at least one of the beam paths (I-IV), and at least one superimposition device which is designed for combining the beam paths (I-IV) by superimposing the modulated radiation and for directing the superimposed radiation onto the input () of the multimode optical waveguide (), are components of a photonic integrated circuit () according to an embodiment of the device.
