High modal discrimination in a Nd:YAG laser resonator with internal phase gratings

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

A unique laser resonator containing an internal phase grating and a diffractive mode-selecting mirror provides high modal discrimination in a Nd:YAG laser cavity. Single-spatial-mode lasers with high Fresnel numbers are possible, with negligible loss to the fundamental mode.
