What’s new at Gentec-EO in November 2024

Friday, November 29, 2024

Here is your monthly news from Gentec-EO in November 2024.

PC-BEAMAGE update

This month’s update to PC-Beamage includes performance improvements with our BEAMAGE-4M-IR beam profiler for infrared beams. This is the result of a large investment in research, especially for small and low-power beams. We are confident that BEAMAGE-4M-IR exceeds the measurement performance of all competing phosphor-based beam profilers that rely on a simple gamma correction-based response characterization. Don’t hesitate to get in touch with us to talk about your IR laser profiling challenges.BEAMAGE-4M-IR
Other updates to PC-Beamage include a correction to the Gaussian fit in certain situations, and a new command to read exposure time via the Named Pipes program interface for automation and program extension. There are also smaller fixes and consistency improvements.

Phosphor-based beam profilers use a coating that absorbs infrared energy and re-emits it in the visible spectrum, which the beam profiler can see. This allows the accurate profiling of laser beams at infrared wavelengths without expensive scientific profilers such as InGaAs-based, that may be large or even require cooling. The drawback is the bandwidth of the camera is decreased. Our beam profiler is optimized for the most common IR wavelengths. The phosphor-based system is also less sensitive than a typical InGaAs-based sensor, however, this is in most cases not an issue for laser beam profilers.
