Radiation Field Structure during Synchronization of Transverse Modes in a Laser,

Abstract

Since synchronization of transverse oscillations of a laser can result in scanning of output radiation, the distribution of amplitudes and phases of transverse modes of laser oscillations was analyzed to correspond closely to conditions in real lasers. It was found that as the synchronized transverse modes increase in number, the modulation of the laser output radiation rises sharply. (Author)
