Abstract
A novel technique for cavity dumping or coupling modulation of a CO2 laser, has been implemented. This technique, which employs an electro‐optically tuned etalon as an output coupler, offers improved efficiency as compared to conventional Brewster‐angle coupling, and it provides convenient end‐mirror outcoupling.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
