Beam Expander, Pinhole, and Crosshair Alignment to Laser Beams

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Simple methods are presented for aligning beam expanders, pinholes, and crosshairs to laser beams. The reliability of these methods illustrates that often these procedures can be greatly simplified by observing the laser beam downstream from the element being aligned.
