Abstract
The transverse modes of a laser resonator comprising a near 90-degrees roof-top mirror and a feedback mirror are studied theoretically. We r elate this configuration to an almost plane roof-top resonator and app ly the Fox and Li technique to compute the lowest-order symmetric and anti-symmetric modes. The effects of perturbations to the vertex angle of the roof-top mirror, misalignments of the feedback mirror and curv ed feedback mirrors are examined.
