Abstract:
In this paper, a new method of measuring the radius of Gaussian laser beam with circular diaphragm is reported. The intensity distritution ofGaussian beam is given by I=(2
P0)/(πω
2)
exp(-(2
r2)/(ω
2)) and theseby
P=∫

rdrdθ,式中P
0. In which P
0 is the total laser power, P is the tran-smissive laser power behind the diaphragm, R is the radius of the diaphragm and w is the 1/e
2 beam radius After P
0, P and R are measured,he beam radius may be obtained by
W=√
-(2)/(ln(1-P/P0))R.
