Abstract

The lasing efficiency in the Q-switch mode depends most of all on the losses, incoming with all the optical elements and the density of the intracavity radiation. It was shown [1], that the maximal efficiency of the operation of Nd-lasers could be achieved while using Q-switches with frustrated total internal reflection (FTIR Q-switches) which possess extremely low losses and high optical durability.
