In Advances in Engineering Research. Volume 28, the authors describe the functional beam splitter that divides the incident beam into several derivative ones, simultaneously introducing the prescribed transformation of their transverse profiles. Recommendations for managing the diffracted beams profiles and their employment in precise metrology and optical vortices analysis are given. Unlike most engineered filtering systems, many naturally ev...
