We are looking for an atom based high power laser intensity measurement system. This atom-based technique should be traceable to the international system of standards and have potential for significant improvement on the uncertainty in intensity. Current methods rely on dated methods and long traceability chains that result in uncertainty in intensity of over 20%. This is a fundamental limitation in various laser-based metal additive manufacturing. The field is plagued by manufacturing errors from this uncertainty. We are looking to develop an atom-based sensor for real-time intensity measurements that can act as a beam profiler.
