Abstract

The dependence of polarisation characteristics of radiation of a linear Nd:YAG laser on polarisation of radiation of a pump diode laser is studied experimentally and theoretically. It is shown that, in the case of polarisation isotropy of the optical resonator, the polarisation of radiation of the Nd:YAG laser is completely determined by the polarisation of pump radiation. Based on the vector model of this laser pumped by polarised radiation, an analytic solution describing stationary lasing is obtained.
