Efficient compensation of thermal birefringence of a flash-lamp pumped Nd:YAG laser by a simple but novel method
A simple but novel technique for eliminating depolarization loss resulting from thermally induced stress birefringence of a flash lamp-pumped free running Nd:YAG laser is reported here. The output characteristics of the beam with minimum depolarization loss have been systematically investigated by t...
