French term or phrase: recouvrement de pulses
Hi,

"Le faisceau issu du laser balaie toute la surface avec une fréquence de 6000Hz, une énergie de 150 mJ, une puissance de 900W et un recouvrement de pulses de 60%, dans une direction allant de la première partie périphérique n; 8 de la région d'interface initiale n; 7 vers la deuxième partie périphérique n; 9 en s'éloigannt de l'achantillon germe..."

Any suggestions welcome
Thank you.

pulse overlap
Explanation:
Seems odd to me that they would be using the EN word here; is there any mention elsewhere of its being a 'pulsed laser'?

Just possible that they don't actually mean 'pulse' at all! I see that it says the laser 'scans' over the surface, so it would make sense if it were 'sweep overlap' — but quite how you'd get from 'pulse' to 'sweep' I can't imagine!

Notes to answerer
Asker: I also found it odd, why not use "impulsion"? yes there is mention of "pulsed laser"
