ABSTRACT:
A single frequency solid state laser has been designed for generation of a high power Q-switch pulse followed by a quasi-CW low power tail by properly controlling the laser resonator transmission via an intracavity Q-switch. The generation of a stable single frequency pulse is accomplished by a primary feedback control system containing a central timing and prelase control unit. Generation and smoothing control of a quasi-CW pulse tail is accomplished through a secondary feedback control system.
