Lasers and laser-related equipment - Test methods for laser beam widths, divergence angles and beam propagation ratios - Part 2: General astigmatic beams (ISO 11146-2:2021)

This document specifies methods for measuring beam widths (diameter), divergence angles and beam propagation ratios of laser beams. This document is applicable to general astigmatic beams or unknown types of beams. For stigmatic and simple astigmatic beams, ISO 11146‑1 is applicable.
Within this document, the description of laser beams is accomplished by means of the second order moments of the Wigner distribution rather than physical quantities such as beam widths and divergence angles. However, these physical quantities are closely related to the second order moments of the Wigner distribution. In ISO/TR 11146‑3, formulae are given to calculate all relevant physical quantities from the measured second order moments.

Laser und Laseranlagen - Prüfverfahren für Laserstrahlabmessungen, Divergenzwinkel und Beugungsmaßzahlen - Teil 2: Allgemein astigmatische Strahlen (ISO 11146-2:2021)

Dieses Dokument legt Verfahren zum Messen der Strahlabmessungen (Strahldurchmesser), Divergenzwinkel und Beugungsmaßzahlen von Laserstrahlen fest. Dieses Dokument ist für allgemein astigmatische Strahlen oder Strahlen unbekannter Art anzuwenden. Bei stigmatischen und einfach astigmatischen Strahlen ist ISO 11146 1 anzuwenden.
In diesem Dokument wird die Beschreibung von Laserstrahlen durch die Momente zweiter Ordnung der Wigner-Verteilung gegenüber der Beschreibung durch physikalische Größen wie Strahlabmessungen und Divergenzwinkel bevorzugt. Diese physikalischen Größen stehen jedoch in engem Zusammenhang mit den Momenten zweiter Ordnung der Wigner-Verteilung. In ISO/TR 11146 3 sind Gleichungen zur Berechnung aller relevanten physikalischen Größen aus den Momenten zweiter Ordnung angegeben.

Lasers et équipements associés aux lasers - Méthodes d'essai des largeurs du faisceau, angles de divergence et facteurs de limite de diffraction - Partie 2: Faisceaux astigmatiques généraux (ISO 11146-2:2021)

Le présent document spécifie les méthodes pour le mesurage des largeurs (diamètres) du faisceau, angles de divergence et  facteurs de limite de diffraction. Le présent document s'applique aux faisceaux astigmatiques généraux ou si le type de faisceau est inconnu. Pour les faisceaux stigmatiques et astigmatiques simples, l'ISO 11146-1 s'applique.
Au sein du présent document, la description des faisceaux laser est réalisée au moyen des moments de second ordre de la distribution de Wigner, plutôt que par des grandeurs physiques telles que les largeurs de faisceau et les angles de divergence. Toutefois, ces grandeurs physiques sont étroitement liées aux moments de second ordre de la distribution de Wigner. Dans l'ISO/TR 11146‑3, des formules sont données pour calculer toutes les grandeurs physiques concernées à partir des moments de second ordre mesurés.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/ directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www .iso .org/ patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.
For an explanation of the voluntary nature of standards, the meaning of ISO specific terms and
expressions related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO's adherence to the
World Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT), see www .iso .org/

This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 172, Optics and photonics, Subcommittee
SC 9, Laser and electro-optical systems, in collaboration with the European Committee for Standardization
(CEN) Technical Committee CEN/TC 123, Lasers and photonics, in accordance with the Agreement on
technical cooperation between ISO and CEN (Vienna Agreement).
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 11146-2:2005), which has been
technically revised. The main changes compared to the previous edition are as follows:
— The terms and definitions were harmonized with the new ISO 11145.
— The "principal axes" were defined more thoroughly and named as x' and y'. Quantities related to the
principal axes coordinate system refer to this definition and use x' and y' in their indices.
— The requirements for the integration range for the determination of the second order moments
have been relaxed.
