LASER CAVITY DESIGN
The Gaussian beam spreadsheet provides an easy way to interactively design systems that work with Gaussian beams. We will consider the design of a cavity for a hypothetical Nd:YAG laser. The task is to design a cavity to support single transverse mode oscillation in a YAG rod. The YAG rod is 0.5mm...
