The Fabry Perot Resonator. Steady state means that both the amplitude and the phase reproduce themselves after one round trip. It is easy to understand that both conditions can only be accomplished if the resonator length is an integral multiple of half the wavelength. Only in this case can we obtain standing waves inside t

Although the active medium is required to generate laser emission, the concept of t

Resonators on the Stability Limitseam go to zero or infinity. On the stability boundaries, the Gaussian beam is not an eigensolution of the resonator. The field distributions of the eigenmodes are still solutions of the diffraction integral equation (5.66), but the mode structure and the diffraction losses have to be calculated nume

Unstable Resonatorsd by a Gaussian beam. Equation (5.10) indicates that in these cases the Gaussian beam radii become complex quantities. The steady state field distributions are not given by Gauss-Hermite or Gauss-Laguerre polynomials. These resonators are referred to as . [3.54,3.67], whereby the term “unstable” acc

Resonators with Internal Optical Elementsors are chosen close to a stability limit in the g-diagram. In both cases a large fundamental mode volume and, consequently, a high efficiency are obtained. In order to avoid a high misalignment sensitivity or a long resonator set-up, lenses can be used inside the resonator to enlarge the Gaussian b
