==Light Recycling For Additive Manufacturing Optimization - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240239046 titled 'Light Recycling For Additive Manufacturing Optimization

The patent application pertains to a method and apparatus for recycling and reusing unwanted light in additive manufacturing by multiplexing multiple beams of light from one or more light sources. The beams of light are reshaped and blended to create a first beam of light, which is then subjected to a spatial polarization pattern to generate a second beam of light. The polarization states of the second beam of light are split to reflect a third beam of light, which is reshaped into a fourth beam of light. The fourth beam of light is reintroduced as one of the multiple beams of light to produce a fifth beam of light.
