<p>The invention relates to a method and an apparatus for reducing the diameter tolerance of a laser beam. A lens (3) is positioned so that one of the focal planes of the lens (3) is in the region of a limit (5) of the Rayleigh range of the beam (19). The lens (3) forms a second beam waist at a position (6), where a modulator (10) is placed. The beam (21) then passes through beam expansion apparatus (11,12,13) before being collimated by a lens (14). The collimated beam (25) is then focussed to a third beam waist at the recording drum (17), via a lens (18) and mirror (15).</p> |
