Abstract
Analytic expressions for the parameters of relaxation oscillations in a cw 2-mu m, Cr,Tm,Ho:YSGG crystal laser are derived and analysed. The y are compared quantitatively with the corresponding parameters of a 2 -mu m Cr,Tm:YSGG crystal laser. Significant differences are found betw een the damping decrements. The experimental and theoretical results a re compared and the different operational dynamics of the Ho3+ and Tm3 + ion lasers explained.
