  • Patent number: 10574024
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an optical module configured to be optically coupleable to a laser amplifier module, the optical module comprising an inner optical element having a plurality of M inner reflective elements arranged around a center of the inner optical element; and a plurality of N outer reflective elements arranged around the inner optical element, the plurality of N outer reflective elements being configured to face the inner optical element, wherein the plurality of M inner reflective elements and the plurality of N outer reflective elements are configured to provide an optical path for a laser beam.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10488250
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method and to a device for quantitatively sensing the power fraction of a radiation background of a pulsed laser. The disclosure further relates to the use of a saturable element. The method includes modulating a measurement beam, which is emitted by the laser, by means of a saturable element in accordance with the fluence of the measurement beam, detecting, by means of a modulation beam power detector, the power of the measurement beam modulated by the saturable element, and determining the power fraction of the radiation background of the pulsed laser on the basis of the detected power of the measurement beam modulated by means of the saturable element.
