Optimum emission polarization and power enhancement in circularly polarized optically pumped lasers

Two-wave-coupling coefficients are presented in the high-J limit for all combinations of linearly and circularly polarized waves and all dipole-allowed transition branches. The results are used to predict the optimum state of emission polarization and the anticipated output-power change under the in...

Zusammenfassung:Two-wave-coupling coefficients are presented in the high-J limit for all combinations of linearly and circularly polarized waves and all dipole-allowed transition branches. The results are used to predict the optimum state of emission polarization and the anticipated output-power change under the influence of a circularly polarized pump in optically pumped lasers.
