Abstract

DPL coupling system was researched in this paper. First, the mathematic model of 3D and 2D light transmission in hollow duct was analyzed and compared. Then the 3D simulation software for all rays of the coupling system -lens duct was developed. The influence of various structural parameters of the hollow lens duct to the energy and the beam distribution were discussed with the help of developed software. The structural parameters such as the duct length, the lens radius, the size of the input and output ends were researched and were optimized to get higher efficiency and better beam distribution. Finally, the energy conversion efficiency and the beam spatial distribution of before and after optimization were compared. The results showed that the efficiency and the distribution of energy were well improved after the optimization.
