Thermopile vs photodetectors: which technology is best for your laser power measurements?
Myriam Blanchet, Inside sales representative at Gentec-EO, explains the difference between a thermopile and a photodetector. She then gives you some tips to know which technology is better for your laser power measurements.
What is the minimum repetition rate of a pulsed laser when used with a power detector?
Average power measurement of a pulsed laser can be a really tricky thing. The slower the repetition rate, the harder it is to get a stable measurement. So what is the minimum repetition rate to get stable and reliable measurements? Myriam Blanchet from Gentec-EO answers this question in this video.
