Abstract

The effect of a dynamic thermal lens on the radiation divergence of a high-energy free running mode neodymium glass laser with an unstable oscillator is presented. The effect of active rod thermal distortions on the temporal changes of output laser radiation are discussed. The dynamics of a thermal lens in neodymium glass GLS-6 of Ø45x300 mm is investigated.
