Improved Brightness Laser Oscillator with Spherical Aberration

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The effect of rod spherical aberration on oscillator beam quality is analysed using helicoid modes as approximate eigenmodes. Beam quality can be degraded or improved, depending on resonator g-factor. Efficient power extraction is problematic, however.
