Reflecting close-coupling cavities for solid-state lasers often provide beams of better quality, although with a slightly lower efficiency compared with those of the usual ellipticl cavities. A new method for the calculation efficiency in reflecting close-coupled cavities is proposed. Examples of efficiency calculations are discussed.
