Laser Beam Analysis Resources

Details on all of our laser measurement instruments.

A laser beam profiler will increase your chance of success anytime you wish to design or apply a laser or when you find your laser system is no longer meeting specifications. You would …

Here are three tipps how to ensure precise measurement with your Ophir BeamSquared system over years.

This document is intended to show how the process of obtaining data and providing measurements using Ophir-Spiricon’s Rayleigh-scatter beam profiling technology, BeamWatch®, aligns …

High power laser application has significantly increased in recent years due to new production techniques that enable cheaper manufacturing and operating costs. Applications of high-power …

Whether in research or in production, the laser parameters must be checked regularly. For this purpose, Fraunhofer IAPT generally turns to the Ophir BeamWatch AM, which measures the …

When we developed BeamWatch AM, we not only drew diagrams and thought about great features, we also talked to experienced manufacturers of selective laser melting (SLM) machines about …

You may be wondering what to expect when you ask us for a laser beam profiling demo. Here's how it works.

Successful outcomes require the power density distribution of the laser beam, as it is delivered to the work, to be symmetrical, uniform, and stable.

A laser profiling system can be of great benefit in helping to characterize and identify which variables affect product quality and waste minimization.

Often we get requests for the Total Optical Path Length when beam splitters are used on our line of 4.5 mm recessed CCD cameras.

With the introduction of BeamGage the capability of using the built in photodiode trigger in the SP camera series is now available.

The scientific community is often faced with the requirement of testing, validating, or merely qualifying several laser sources planned for a particular project.

Ophir Photonics offers a number of solutions for profiling UV laser beams. Spot sizes from 0.15 mm to over 25 mm can be safely profiled without the risk of camera sensor damage or …

During the development of these laser systems and installation in the applications in which they will be put into service, performance measurements of the components and the system …

The skills required to understand, troubleshoot, and correct problems with lasers, and the systems they are a part of, are in high demand. It's all part of an evolution whereby yesterday's …

In part 1, we discussed camera technologies that are available for covering various wavelengths. There are similar options for scanning slit profilers.

We are frequently asked how one can output data from the NanoScan to other programs for additional analysis or publication. Depending nature of the desired end results there can be …

With the broad range of wavelengths that can be measured with this instrument, the first consideration is the material and anti-reflective coating of the lens. There are a number of …
