Abstract
We have developed an optical scheme of a laser with anisotropic active elements providing, upon a single switching of the electro-optical shutter and with the use of a bleaching filter in the cavity, the generation of double giant pulses the variation range of the time interval between which is practically unlimited. The laser provides the generation of two giant pulses whose radiation polarization planes are mutually orthogonal. An experimental study of a ruby laser of such a type with an orientation of the optical axis of the active elements close to 60° has been made.
