Abstract

A novel analytical approach is proposed for an accurate estimation of a broad range of Gaussian laser beam diameters. The new approach is used to study the performance of most recently proposed periodic and aperiodic rulings. Further, for spot-size measurement applications, which range from very small to very large beam diameters, a new single aperiodic exponential ruling is proposed.
