Abstract
Measurements of beams of ~1 μm in diameter are presented. Three approaches, one using a Ronchi ruling, the other two based on knife-edge scan techniques are compared experimentally. Effects of Ronchi ruling accuracy and nonconstant scan velocity are discussed. Included are results of theoretical studies on the effect of imperfect scanning edges and non-Gaussian beam profiles on measurement results.
