Laser Measurement Best Practices: Thermal Offset Due To Sensor Heating
7/6/2016
Thermal sensors are designed to measure the power of lasers according to their heat measurements. In some cases, the sensor may be heated due to environmental causes and result in an incorrect laser power measurement. This video provides a set of best practices to assume in order to get the most accurate thermal sensor readings every time.

Video: Does Damage Threshold Depend On Power Level?
11/23/2015
Does the power density damage threshold really change with power? Shouldn’t it remain the same throughout the whole power range? This video presents evidence suggesting that the specified damage threshold does depend on the power level, and not just power density.
