Abstract

The effects of intracavity etalons on the temporal mode structure of a regenerative amplifier have been studied both theoretically and experimentally. The analysis predicts the output temporal pulse shape given the input pulse shape, the laser-cavity parameters, the etalon parameters, and the number of round trips the injected pulse makes in the laser cavity. Experimental results agree well with the theory.
