NEW: power measuring device by Gigahertz-Optik
In most laser power measurement applications radiant laser power is the one and only qualifying parameter
However in a few specific applications the radiant power noise characteristic is of interest as well. Typically in these applications the detector bandwidth cannot be limited to reduce the signal noise through long integration times. One common example of this involves laser imaging scanners. The very high scanning frequency of these systems requires very fast detection systems without bandwidth limitation. Because of this the noise level and noise characteristic of the laser, used as a light source, influences the signal to noise ratio and therefore the imaging resolution.
