Разработка малогабаритных твердотельных zigzag лазеров на основе плоской усеченной призмы

Abstract

Described the design features of solid-state zigzag lasers based on a flat truncated prism. Identified the range of the cavity construction angles under which the whole volume of zigzag laser take part in generating output power. Refined the values of the harmful losses of the zigzag laser three-mirror optical resonator, in which apart from material losses on absorption and scattering in the matrix of the active media are included losses on the radiation transferring through the non-ideal reflecting mirrors that provide a zigzag course of the beam in the cavity. Analyzed the dependences of the losses coefficient and output power for Nd:Glass laser from the design parameters of the three-mirror zigzag laser resonator.
