Abstract
Principles and detailed procedures are described for measuring laser energy and power in terms of electrical energy based on voltage, resistance, and frequency standards. The construction of a small isoperibol calorimeter used for the measurements is described. The calorimeter will accommodate 0.01 to 20 J and 4 × 10-5 to 1 W cw and is limited to a maximum pulse intensity of 0.1 J/cm2. The standard deviation of comparison measurements using two calorimeters and a beam splitter is 0.08 percent when the smaller energy input is not less than 0.3 J. The estimated limits of systematic error for one calorimeter are ± 1.0 percent of the laser energy measured by the calorimeter.
