Nf. Andreyev et al., NOVEL METHOD FOR THE GENERATION OF SINGLE -FREQUENCY RADIATION IN A MASTER OSCILLATOR, Kvantovaa elektronika, 23(4), 1996, pp. 338-340
A method for selection of longitudinal modes of a laser cavity is desc
ribed. This method is based on modulation of the cavity length during
a pump pulse. Simplicity and reliability are ensured by the absence of
feedback. Construction is reported of a pulse-periodic YAG:Nd laser e
mitting single-frequency radiation in 100 % of the pulses.
