Comparison of electrooptically Q-switched Er:Cr:YSGG lasers by two polarizers: Glan-Taylor prism and Brewster angle structure

Two types of electro‐optically Q‐switched Er:Cr:YSGG lasers with different polarizing mechanisms have been operated. For the one Q‐switching and polarizing are realized with only a LiNbO3 crystal with both ends cut at Brewster's angle and for the other they are achieved by a cubic LiNbO3 crysta...

Zusammenfassung:	Two types of electro‐optically Q‐switched Er:Cr:YSGG lasers with different polarizing mechanisms have been operated. For the one Q‐switching and polarizing are realized with only a LiNbO3 crystal with both ends cut at Brewster's angle and for the other they are achieved by a cubic LiNbO3 crystal and a Glan‐Taylor prism, respectively. The two schemes are compared with regard to both the mechanical and laser Q‐switched properties. (© 2006 by Astro, Ltd. Published exclusively by WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA)
