Numerical investigation of a three-mirror resonator for a TE CO2 laser

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

A numerical model of a three-mirror resonator for a TE CO2 laser was developed. This model was used to determine if a three-mirror resonator with an etalon could be used to ensure tunable single-mode action on the lower gain lines of CO2. Single-mode pulse energies were also predicted and good agreement was found with experimentally measured values. An analysis of the thermal frequency drift of the resonator is also presented.
