Hi,
I’m simulating a laser imaging system (diffraction limited) and would like to measure the focused spot size on the image plane.
The commercial software I’m using now takes measurement of beam spot by gaussian fitting and obtains its FWHM as the spot size.
However, in Zemax the spot size is evaluated by the Airy disk (do I understand it right?), which uses the Bessel fitting.
How can I convert the Airy disk size to the industrial measurement method FWHM ? Or is there any more realistic beam size measurement method in Zemax?
If I did not describe my question clearly, please comment and let me know. I really appreciate that.
Thank you.
Oliver
