Abstract

A system and method for using a laser, including using a coherent light source to generate a beam having a dominant wavelength wl; and providing along the beam's light path, at least one optical element having a surface upon which the beam impinges, whose roughness is between D and ½ wl−D where D is double the tolerance of the laser's dominant wavelength.
