摘要
An approximate method of the modelling of the nonlinear operation of the segment laser containing a saturable absorber beyond mean field approximation is presented. An analytical condition for the bistable operation as a function of the system parameters is derived. The influence of the output mirror reflectivity, the linear losses, the saturable losses, the ratio of the active medium length to the total length of the structure on hysteresis loop is investigated. The results are compared to the predictions of the exact solutions, and they are found to be in qualitative agreement as well as in good quantitative agreement. Moreover, the laser characteristics revealing the optimal output mirror reflectivity are presented.
