Abstract
The paper is concerned with the influence of the finite size of an incident beam upon both the anomalous-reflection spectrum and the shape of the energy distribution in a reflected beam. It is proved experimentally that the use of corrugated waveguides as a laser-resonator selective mirror improves the spatial coherence of radiation.Keywords
