Abstract

An arrangement is described in which the effect of the standing waves on the active medium is eliminated by placing it between 1 4 -wave retardation elements. As a result the active medium experiences no hole burning or mode competition effects. The emission characterestics of this laser were found to be different from those of a standard laser system. The laser could be operated at repetition rates of up to 40 pps and its output consisted of completely regular pulses whose period and amplitude could be controlled by the pumping process.
