1. An optical system, comprising:
a first optical component having a first beam profile;
a second optical component having a second beam profile;
a first beam-shaping element fixedly connected to the first optical component and a second beam-shaping element fixedly connected to the second optical component, wherein the first beam-shaping element is configured to change the first beam profile and wherein the second beam-shaping element is configured to change the second beam profile to thereby form an optical coupling between the first optical component and the second optical component, wherein the first beam-shaping element and the second beam-shaping element are each formed in situ at a respective target position by three-dimensional direct-writing lithography; and
wherein the first optical component and the second optical component are arranged on a common base plate.
