Space- and time-resolved laser beam diagnostics of high-power CO2 lasers during material processing

A measuring device for the intensity profile of high-power CO2 laser beams based on a linear pyroelectric detector array is presented. It enables the user to measure variations of the mode structure up to several kHz with a one dimensional spatial resolution. Periodic as well as stochastic fluctuations of the local intensity are analyzed, leading to fundamental considerations to characterize the temporal stability of laser beams. Simultaneously to the laser beam diagnostic, signals obtained from the cutting and welding process have been detected. By the comparison of these signals with the time-resolved measurement of the intensity profile, the influence of laser mode instabilities on the material processing is documented.
