Abstract
Based on the unified theory of coherence and polarization, the interaction of a stochastic electromagnetic Gaussian Schell-model (EGSM) beam with a Gaussian cavity containing thermal-lens medium is analyzed. In particular, the effect of the thermal medium of the lens on the evolution properties of the degree of polarization, the degree of coherence and the spectral shift are investigated in detail. It is shown that the thermal-lens medium has a strong influence on the behavior of the EGSM beam especially in unstable resonators, thus it is necessary for us to take the thermal-lens effect into consideration in practice.
