System Integration of Fiber Lasers and Its Effects on Laser Quality
Ophir - Spiricon LLC, Photonics
The quality of a laser is usually only measured on the laser source. But most laser sources are integrated into a system being used for a specific process or application. This means the laser light can interact with different components, each of which can have an effect on its quality. This paper looks at specific examples of beam profiles and effects on focus spot size, ellipticity, and more.

Established by a UN resolution, the International Year of Light and Light-Based Technologies is a global initiative to raise awareness of how photonics and optics promote sustainable development and provide solutions to worldwide challenges in energy, education, agriculture, communications and health.
The festivities will take place around the Paris headquarters of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization.
Five Nobel laureates will give plenary lectures on energy, telecommunications and the fundamental physics of light-matter interactions. Other events will recognize Albert Einstein, who described the quantum nature of light in 1905 in his special theory of relativity, and 11th-century Arab thinker Ibn al-Haytham, who is considered the father of modern optics.
