β¦ Synopsis
The thermal lensing eect of the Copper Vapor Laser (CVL) was studied by considering both its windows and the active medium. The equivalent combined focal length of the active medium and windows was measured to be 52 mts under operating conditions for a 35W CVL. The variation of focal length with the operating parameters was studied.
