Radiation-Pressure-Enabled Traceable Laser Sources at CW Powers up to 50 kW

Radiation pressure has recently been shown to have practical application for multikilowatt continuous wave (CW) laser power measurement. One key advantage lies in its ability to measure without absorbing the laser beam. This enables a new measurement paradigm where laser power can be measured traceable to the SI without perturbing the beam. Combining this measurement scheme with a laser constitute...
