When to Use the D86 Beam Width Measurement Method

Beam Profiling Concepts | September 15, 2016

Although the clip level method and the second moment method are the most popular methods of beam width measurement, other beam width measurement techniques such as the D86 method can be used with beam profiling cameras.

Small Beam Width Theoretical and Experimental Error

Beam Profiling Concepts | March 14, 2016

One of the most important measurements in laser beam profiling is the beam width measurement. A common question we see is “How small of a beam can I measure with this camera?”

Systematic Error in ISO 11146 Measurements

Beam Profiling Concepts | May 12, 2016

Systematic error is an important calculation in any measurement system, and especially in ISO 11146 laser beam profiling measurements. In this blog post, we address the systematic error inherent to the measurement of beam width as laid out in the ISO 11146 standard.
