Extraction efficiency of laser active medium: Optimization

Abstract

In the design of high power laser sources, the choice of the active medium geometry is of fundamental importance for the optimization of energy extraction capability. This paper compares, by means of simple analytical deductions and numerical simulations, the energy extraction efficiency of different optical configurations ranging from simple resonators such as the plano-plano, the confocal positive branch, or the self-filtering unstable (SFUR) up to more complex systems like multi-pass amplifiers or combined oscillator-amplifiers (MOPA).
