ABSTRACT:
An attenuator for varying the power of a laser scanning light beam includes a bracket having a reduced portion intermediate its ends enabling one end to be rotated around its other end. A glass element is secured to the movable end and is moved to a position which intercepts the laser light beam at an angle of incidence which varies in accordance with the amount of rotation of the movable end around the other end.
