Abstract

A light source system is disclosed, the system comprises: a multimode laser unit; a first lenslet array positioned in a path of said laser beam and configured to form an array of focused spots in a selected plane downstream of said first lenslet array; a spatial filter mask carrying an array of pinholes positioned in said selected plane; a second lenslet array having spatial arrangement of lenslets similar to the first lenslet array and positioned such that said spatial filter mask is in a back focal plane of said second lenslet array, thereby collimating laser light from the array of focused spots into a corresponding array of beamlets; and a third lenslet array positioned downstream of said second lenslet array, configured for focusing said array of beamlets to form an output spot array at an exit pupil of said light source system.
