Unveiling the Role of the Beam Shape in Photothermal Beam Deflection Measurements: A 1D and 2D Complex Geometrical Optics Model Approach
The preponderance of laser beam shapes cannot be ruled out during the implementation of an optical experiment nor during the formulation of its theoretical background. The present work elucidates the role of Gaussian and top-hat beam shapes in generating and analysing the photothermal beam deflectio...
