Abstract

A positive branch unstable resonator for Nd:VAG oscillator producing a nearly gaussian beam in the far as well as in the near field was studied. The results of these studies are presented. Pulse duration from 5 to 20 ns were measured with energies up to 100 mJ and divergences less than 03 mrad The output characteristics of the oscillator for four geometrical magnifications of the pbranch unstable resonator were also reported
