Abstract
Reflective dynamic focusing devices (RDFDs) have shown their potential in laser scanning as high-performance laser Z-direction focusing devices. However, the scanning range of RDFD-based scanners is limited by aberrations during dynamic focusing. An aspheric symmetry correction (ASC) method was proposed to extend the effective scanning range. An aspheric lens was introduced to correct the optical path difference (OPD) and optimize aberrations. As a result, the scanning range in the three-dimensional (3D) space increased by 15.2%. The ASC method has been proven to extend the 3D scanning range of RDFD-based scanners and may have broad application prospects.
