How to calculate the beam waist of Gaussian beam from its intensity in a crystal? Is there any direct relationship between the beam waist and intensity of a gaussian beam?
In the case you have a pure Gaussian beam then things are well defined. The thing that is still open from your question is what do you mean you have the "intensity in a crystal"? Do you have an intensity measuring method / tool within the crystal? usually power meters tell you the power at a point in space where you can later place the crystal.
Anyway, Gaussian profile is simple and relation between peak / average / half height are completely defined in books / web.
Recall: the Intensity in the center is twice the average, if you obtain the Gaussian waist (86% and 4-Sigma yield the same in Gaussian)....
Unfortunetelly not. For a given beam waist intensity is just entirely independent parameter. But if you can measure intensity profile, there you go... Just use a camera
