Abstract. We investigated errors arising in calculations of optical signals in non-linear laser spectroscopy due to neglection of non-uniformity in cross-beam laser power distribution. The following three cases of non-linear emission are considered: saturated molecular luminescence, sequential multi-photon excitation of luminescence, laser-induced incandescence of micro-particles.

Keywords: non-uniformity of laser power spatial distribution, non-linear processes, luminescence, laser-induced incandescence.
