Use of mathematical software for calculating the pointing angle of laser diode

Open Access Open Access

Abstract

A practical method was developed by a production engineer and a technician to measure the pointing angle of laser diode using a circular aperture. The method provided qualitative measurement only. A theoretical analysis using a mathematical software such as Mathcad shows that the method can provide quantitative measurement as well.
