摘要
Various resonator concepts are discussed with respect to the improvement of beam quality, especially for high power solid state lasers. By compensating the thermally induced birefringence and using adaptive mirrors considerable improvement is possible. The values of output power and beam propagation factors M-2 for various laser systems are compiled.
