The closer an actual laser beam is to diffraction-limited, the
more tightly it can be focused, the greater its depth of eld,
and the smaller the diameter of the beam optics can be
to transmit the beam. M
2
is the ratio of the divergence of
the actual beam to that of a theoretical diffraction-limited
beam of the same waist size in the TEM
oo
mode. Thus, the
angular size of the beam in the far eld will be M
2
larger than
calculated for a perfect Gaussian beam.
