Abstract

Various embodiments of a laser illumination system are disclosed. In some examples, a system includes one or more lasers and a beam combiner configured to direct a combined light beam along a path. The system can include a polychroic optical assembly that receives the combined light beam and to output a first beam of the first light of the first wavelength and a second beam of the second light of the second wavelength. The second beam can be offset from the first beam. The polychroic optical assembly can be a prism assembly. The system can include one or more optical elements configured alter a distribution of light of the first beam to output a first output line at a sample plane, and to alter a distribution of light of the second beam to output a second output line at the sample plane.
