This post is meant to help the uninitiated and trained professional alike to navigate the process of choosing the right photodiode for their application.
If you’ll ask Raphi Cohen, Sr. Scientist at Ophir Photonics, what’s the favorite part of his work he’ll …
There are matrix methods that can be used for propagating the diameter and curvature of the beam, but if your main interest is simply the location of the new focus (i.e. beam waist) or the size of the focal spot, you can use the Focal Spot Size Calculator tool on the Ophir website. Dr. Ivker Our expert – will explain you how
Many laser applications involve measuring beams that come out of an optical fiber. Learn all about the solutions Ophir has to offer
In this week’s blog post we’re excited to introduce you to Mark Slutzki, our experienced product Manager
Lasers can be divided into many categories based on their principle of operation, wavelength, and output powers; here …
Lasers are used for many different applications and come in a large variety of powers and parameters, so it wouldn’t be fair (or logical) to require the same sort of safety measures for industrial laser welders as laser pointers or barcode scanners.
There are many specifications used to define optical components, such as lenses, mirrors,
windows, etc. Some, like focal length, might seem obvious. Others, like power
and centration, might not be as self-explanatory.
Here is an incomplete glossary of some of the most commonly used specifications for
optics.
