Reverse-wave suppressor mirror effects on cw HF unstable ring laser performance
The effect of a reverse-wave suppressor (RWS) mirror on the performance of a multiline cw HF ring laser was measured and theoretically discussed. Forward-wave far-field brightness was found to be very sensitive to the tilt of a conventional RWS mirror, being reduced by a factor of 2 for a 200-micror...

| description | The effect of a reverse-wave suppressor (RWS) mirror on the performance of a multiline cw HF ring laser was measured and theoretically discussed. Forward-wave far-field brightness was found to be very sensitive to the tilt of a conventional RWS mirror, being reduced by a factor of 2 for a 200-microrad RWS tilt. An aberrated mirror was found to reduce this tilt sensitivity by nearly an order of magnitude. Also discussed is a possible mechanism whereby the tilt of the conventional RWS mirror reinforced a higher-order mode in the forward-wave output, yet the tilt of the aberrated mirror did not. |
