  • Abstract
    Relaxation oscillations induced by cavity dumping in a Nd:YAG laser have been suppressed by an intracavity frequency doubler, thereby increasing the useful output of this laser for communications purposes by an order of magnitude. The additional loss induced by frequency doubling was negligible even at high damping constants.
