Preface

"Why are you even here ?"

That's why !

Theoritical model

ABCD matrix analysis

{x_2 \choose \theta_2} = \begin{pmatrix} A & B \\ C & D \end{pmatrix}{x_1 \choose \theta_1}

Okay but you're not using rays !

...yes I am

But you do not have to take my word for it

Q_2 = \frac{A Q_1 + B}{C Q_1 + D}

In the last episode...

Calculated focalisation

Calculated inter-waist distance

Theory vs. Pratice

A problem of numerical precision ?

NOPE

So what then ?

Closing thoughts

Unresolved issues

  • No way to integrate the input power
  • No consideration of the plasma formed
  • No real model of the warp of the beam surface
  • ...

Thanks for your attention !
