L. Stamatescu et Mw. Hamilton, TRANSFER-FUNCTION APPROACH TO COLLECTIVE MODE-DYNAMICS IN A ND-YAG LASER, Physical review. E, Statistical physics, plasmas, fluids, and related interdisciplinary topics, 55(3), 1997, pp. 2115-2118
For a multimode laser operating in a steady state regime with small-si
gnal gain modulation, transfer functions are measured for both total i
ntensity and intensities of individual modes. A quantitative picture o
f the phase clustering of contributions from each cavity mode to the c
ollective mode dynamics is obtained from the transfer functions in the
pole-residue representation.
