ABSTRACT:
A system for controlling the polarization of lasers is described in which the polarization of laser radiation generated in a gain cavity is controlled by feedback of a controlled amount of polarized light from a polarizing cavity. The output mirror of the gain cavity forms an input mirror of the polarizing cavity.
