The attenuation unit is based on a zinc selenide (ZnSe) beam splitter and can be mounted in four positions on the LaserDec aperture. It is designed for a 45° angle of incidence and can be used up to intensities of 5kW/cm2.
The absorbed heat is dissipated by cooling water whereby thermal lens effects are eliminated. The water-cooling allows the utilization of lasers up to powers of 3kW. To avoid interference patterns the beam splitter is designed as wedge angle.
