Focal length (mm) Waist () Diameter () Depth of Field ()

Notes:

The resulting beam waist \(w_0^\prime\) is calculated from the wavelength \(\lambda\), focal length \(f\) and input waist \(w_0\) using the following formula: $$w_0^\prime = \frac{\lambda f}{\pi w_0}$$ Which is easily derived using Ray transfer matrix analysis. The depth of field is taken as two times the Rayleigh length.
