Nonstationary Dynamics of a Bipolarized Nd:YAG Laser with a Fabry–Perot Cavity

  • Published:
Radiophysics and Quantum Electronics Aims and scope

We study experimentally the fluctuation and dynamic behavior of a bipolarized microchip Nd:YAG laser. A nonstationary behavior similar to that predicted in [1] was detected. The self-modulation frequency was close to the frequency of relaxation oscillations typical of solid-state lasers. According to the data available to us, this was the first study (observation) of such a behavior.
