…beam width, and the profile intensity data is autoscaled (optional) to fit the display height. Added detail can be obtained in a special high-resolution mode. This is very useful for analyzing beams that are far from Gaussian in shape or smaller than 100 µm. Beam Position and Ellipticity The beam…

…using vernier
callipers. A commonly used definition of beam
width is the width at which the beam intensity
has fallen to 1/e² (13.5%) of its peak value.
This is derived from the propagation of a
Gaussian beam and is appropriate for lasers
operating in the fundamental…

Since, in mathematical terms, the intensity of a
Gaussian beam never drops completely to zero, it
is standard to define the beam radius as the distance from the beam center to the 1/e2 point.
