To reduce the complexity and cost of partially coherent optical system, increase the convenience of partially coherent laser beam application, in this paper, we presents a method to control the coherence and divergence angle of laser beam complexly, using a liquid crystal spatial light modulator (LC-SLM). First, we introduce the basic theory and method to control the coherence and divergence angle of laser beam complexly using an LC-SLM; then, we put forward the experiment to test the coherence and divergence angle controlling accuracy. The experiment results show that, for a partially coherent laser beam with the coherence and divergence angle of 0.9 mm, 7.5 mrad and 1.5 mm, 3.8 mrad, the error of coherence is less than 5%, the root-mean-square errors of the degree of coherence are 0.027 386 and 0.031 314, and the peak-to-valley values are 0.084 658 and 0.089 103 respectively; the error of divergence angle is less than 5%, the root-mean-square errors of the divergence angle are 0.022 478 and 0.023 186, and the peak-to-valley values are 0.081 201 and 0.092 130 respectively. This method can control degree of coherence and divergence angle with high accuracy.
