The M2-200s is an ISO 11146 compliant system that automatically measures laser beam quality. The latest version adds support for the 64-bit Windows® 7, addressing more physical memory, minimizing the time required to swap processes, and speeding up the measurement cycle to less than two minutes. Designed for continuous 24/7 use, the M2-200s features a CCD camera that works with pulsed or CW lasers, 266nm 1300nm. The compact, portable system automatically measures M2, beam waist location and width, divergence, astigmatism, asymmetry ratio, and the Rayleigh range for each axis. Input beam sizes can range from 0.5mm 10mm. Manual mode is available for beams that are too large or too small, or for wavelengths outside the standard optical train. "M2 measurements verify a beam's focus-ability and determine whether you're getting the laser you expected," stated Gary Wagner, General Manager, Ophir Photonics. "Accuracy is important. Unlike non-ISO compliant instruments, the M2-200s uses a fixed position lens and moving detector. This allows the system to measure M2 values even when the laser beam is diverging or converging. Non-ISO compliant instruments compromise results by using a moving lens and fixed detector." The M2-200s supports both the 64-bit and 32-bit versions of Windows® 7, enhancing system configuration options and increasing processing speed. The software displays a 2D or 3D beam profile of the currently measured point in the beam propagation curve. After each run, the beam profile of any individual measured point can be observed. Outlying or anomalous points can be automatically or manually excluded from the curve fit calculations for more accurate results. The M2-200s software is based on Spiricon's patented UltraCalTM calibration method and auto aperturing. This excludes noise beyond the wings of the laser beam and assures high accuracy measurements. Availability & Pricing The M2-200s is available now.
