Laser Diode Application Note
The Astigmatic Laser Diode source provides a more realistic model. Most diode lasers suffer from astigmatism: x- and y-components of the beam waist are displaced along the axis.

High Brightness Diode Lasers Based on Beam Splitting and
A new method to improve the brightness of diode lasers based on beam-waist splitting and polarization combining was proposed and demonstrated. The beam waist was split by a
Beam Waist – focus, laser beam
The beam waist (or beam focus) of a laser beam is the location along the propagation direction where the beam radius has a minimum. The waist radius is the beam radius at that location.
Laser Diodes
Most diode lasers suffer from astigmatism: x- and y-components of the beam waist are displaced along the axis. In index-guided lasers, displacement is typically 2-8 µm.

What Is the Beam Waist of a Focused Laser Beam?
The beam waist, often denoted as $w_0$, represents the location where a focused laser beam achieves its absolute narrowest radius. This point is also called the minimum spot size, and it is where the light
