Camera-based profilers There are many camera sensor types to choose from when it comes to this type of profiler. The most common is a CCD sensor. Cameras using CCD sensors are very linear and have a ...

In combination with the highly developed beam profiling software RayCi, this new UV-Beam Profiler with 1.3 MPixel CMOS sensor and 5.3µm² pixel size provides accurate laser beam analysis of cw and ...

For laser beam characterisation, the conventional camera-based method described in ISO 11146 requires several measurements at different locations along the beam path. When using a wavefront sensor ...

The BeamStar CCD laser beam profiler system includes all that is necessary to profile both pulsed and CW lasers from µW to Watts with up to 12 decades of dynamic range. Available in two models ...

Knowledge of a laser beam's shape and output-power distribution is critical for optimizing laser performance. Neil Savage summarizes the latest beam-profiling products on the market.

Lasers usually conjure up the image of bulky devices with mirrors inside that shine a coherent beam out one end. However, scientists from Kent University have created a model that's just a flat ...

Researchers at the University of Illinois have pulled off a laser first: they built a new kind of eye-safe laser that works ...

Applications ranging from optical telecommunications to bar-code scanning require precise characterization of light beams. Ideally, you could characterize a beam with a single number that defined its ...

With laser beams, molecules can be fixed at exactly the right position in a three dimensional material. The new method can be used to grow biological tissue or to create micro sensors.

[Anthony] at UCLA needed to verify the shape of a laser beam. Commercial units for this, as you would expect, are expensive. But a Raspberry Pi with a Pi Noir camera easily handles the task. Not on… ...
