Laser Beam Profiling: Cost-Effective Solutions

This book provides an overview of lasers, silicon sensors, and practical solutions to beam
profiling which has never been presented in a single text. The focus of this practical guide will be to provide the reader with the information necessary to image and calibrate the beam profile at any operating distance using
inexpensive, off-the-shelf equipment. The chapters of this text will be introducing (1)
lasers, (2) filters and (3) silicon detectors. These theoretical chapters form the foundation
for understanding the laboratory equipment and working with them without details that
are beyond the scope of this text.
