Abstract:

An experimental comparison of energy and of the radiation angle for lasers with plane and confocal mirrors was made. The radiation energy in the confocal resonator is 1.7 times greater than for the plane resonator. The angle of divergence of the radiation after compensation of the spherical component is 3.5 times greater, and the axial beam brightness is by an order less than for the plane resonator. Besides, for a confocal resonator more uniform energy distribution is observed, the time-dependence of the radiation of quasi-dependence pf the radiation of quasi-continuum character with superimposed regular oscillations is observed.
