Author:Masina, Bathusile N; Forbes, A; Bodkin, R; Mwakikunga, Bonex WDate:Sep 2010In this poster the authors discussed the ability to heat an industrial diamond sample by means of optical absorption of a CO2 laser beam, and then measure the resulting temperature on the surface of the diamond optically by means of radiometry ...Read more
Author:Masina, Bathusile N; Bodkin, R; Mwakikunga, Bonex W; Forbes, ADate:Aug 2011This paper presents an implementation of a laser beam shaping system for both heating a diamond tool and measuring the resulting temperature optically. The influence the initial laser parameters have on the resultant temperature profiles is ...Read more
