Characterisation of high-power Nd:YAG laser beams transmitted by fibers
Abstract
In this paper a simple description of fiber transmitted Nd:YAG laser beams in terms of a quasihomogenous source model (QHS-model) is worked out. It is demonstrated to meet the requirements of simplicity, small number of free parameters and easy experimental determinability of these parameters. These features are checked in experiment. It is shown in an example for industrial surface treatment that the QHS-model description enables successful complex beam shaping for fiber transmitted Nd:YAG beams.
