Abstract :
The spiking condition of dye lasers is analyzed by means of a small-signal approximation of the rate equations. Dye lasers are generally operated close to the border region between spiking and nonspiking. An initial spike is observed in the output beam of a flash-lamp-excited rhodamine 6G laser with a shortened cavity.
