This ZPL macro generates a file under "\Zemax\Miscellaneous\RAYLIST.TXT" to represent the envelope of a Gaussian beam. There are 3 user inputs: the Waist Size w0, Surf 1 to Waist and the M2 Factor. The macro generates a list of 16 rays based on Paul Colbourne's skew rays: Using skew rays to model Gaussian beams. These rays can be displayed in the 3D layout or Shaded Model by selecting under the settings Pattern...List.

Language: ZPL
