Abstract
Presented is a novel design of a multimode laser beam analyzer to enable beam measurements of minimum beam waist size, minimum waist location, divergence and the beam propagation parameter called M2. Experimental results demonstrate these measurements for a 532 nm multimode test laser beam.
