Physics colloquium: “Metrology for High Power Laser Manufacturing”
CoorsTek Center for Applied Science and Engineering 1523 Illinois St., Golden, CO, United StatesBrian Simonds NIST Abstract: Continuous-wave high-power lasers have evolved from bulky, inefficient tools with only niche applications to reliable photon appliances that have rapidly been adopted by industry. Accordingly, the metrology of these laser systems has also advanced. The Sources and Detectors group at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) develops and maintains […]
