Abstract

See full text

A beam combining device includes a plurality of separate input beam paths and an output beam path for combining a plurality of input beams to an output beam. One or a plurality of Risley prism pairs are assigned to each input beam path of the beam combining device. The prism pairs deflect the input beam in an adjustable direction. A device for deflecting a light beam includes a Risley prism pair that includes two prisms arranged one behind the other in the light beam path. At least one of the two prisms is mounted in a rotatable manner. An electromotive drive brings about a rotary movement of the rotatable prism. The electromotive drive is a piezoelectric vibration drive having a mechanical resonator and a piezoelectric element coupled thereto. The resonator bears against a friction wheel connected to the rotatable prism.
