Abstract :
Summary form only. During the last years the promising results were achieved in the field of the phase conjugate oscillators and amplifiers while using the dynamical holographic gratings formed in the active media and passive Q-switches. At the same time the creation of the adaptive resonator for the free-running mode laser is also of great interest. To attain this goal we studied the intracavity beam diffraction and interference processes for a free-running Nd-doped laser.
