Abstract

Performance of lasers has been steadily improving, due in part to the availability of electronic beam diagnostic instrumentation. This instrumentation enables laser designers and users to obtain illuminating and quantitative information about the beam intensity pattern. Armed with more precise data on the beam profile, designers are able to make dramatic improvements in the beam uniformity. Advances in this critical instrumentation are discussed.
