ABSTRACT:
An output laser beam of an unstable laser resonator has a circular cross sectional pattern, so that a condensation thereof becomes easy, resulting in a high power beam. The circular pattern is obtained by making an expanding mirror of the resonator partially transmissible and compensating for a phase difference between laser beam portions passing through the expanding mirror and other portion of a window mirror.
