Optimum load and saturation characteristics of an infrared helium-neon laser

Journal of Applied Spectroscopy Aims and scope

Abstract

An experimental study is reported for optimum mirror transmission in a helium-neon laser for a wavelength of 1.15μ and generation in several longitudinal modes. The results agree closely with calculations if homogeneous saturation of the line is assumed. This is also confirmed by radiated power for distances of 0.5, 1.0, and 1.9 m between the mirrors.
