Ophir-Spiricon to showcase laser beam quality measurement system at SPIE Photonics West 2017

Jan. 17, 2017
The BeamSquared laser beam quality (M2) measurement system is based on the company's patented Ultracal baseline correction algorithm.
The BeamSquared laser beam quality (M2) measurement system is based on the company's patented Ultracal baseline correction algorithm that helped establish the ISO 11146-3 standard for beam measurement accuracy. The system measures the propagation characteristics of continuous-wave (CW) and pulsed lasers, from UV to near-IR to telecom wavelengths in automated mode in <1 min. Manual mode is available for CO2 lasers and wavelengths greater than near-IR, including terahertz. Measurements include waist diameters, full angle divergence, waist locations, Rayleigh lengths, M2 or K and BPP factors, astigmatism, and asymmetry.SPIE Photonics West booth number: 1400To Learn More:Contact:Ophir-SpiriconHeadquarters: North Logan, UTProduct: BeamSquared laser M2 measurement systemKey Features: Meausres propagation characteristics from UV to near-IR to telecom wavelengthsWhat Ophir-Spiricon says: View more information on the BeamSquared laser M2 measurement system.View More Products Locate a vendor or system integrator in our Buyer's Guide.Share new products that you think are particularly interesting or helpful by contacting Lee Dubay, Associate Editor, Laser Focus World.
