Optimal resonators for self-mode locking of continuous-wave solid-state lasers

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We propose an effective procedure, based on rather simple mathematical calculations, for optimal cavity design for a variety of laser geometries. In addition to the well-known guidelines from the literature, we suggest ways for the further optimization of a four-mirror cavity. The possibilities of using three- and two-mirror resonators for building compact Kerr-lens lasers are considered.
