Abstract
Temporal dynamics of the far-infrared p-Ge laser emission and its dependence on the laser cavity design have been studied in order to investigate the possibility of using intracavity elements for the purpose of active and passive mode locking. The positive result for mode locking with intracavity elements is that the laser modes are still defined by the entire cavity including the insert, although the interface influences the relative intensities of the various modes.
