Abstract

Modern CO2-lasers for materials processing exceed an output power of 10 kW. Additionally, the beam quality, e.g. given by the focussability, is increased. The achieved high intensity requires mirror optics. The conditions for their use were examined and will be reported. Additionally, future aspects such as correctable telescopes or intelligent optics are discussed.
