Use of a vacuum-planar photodiode to drive an electro-optic Q switch directly

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

A vacuum photodiode was used to drive a Pockels cell directly in an optical-feedback arrangement. This technique was used to achieve Q switching and a single-longitudinal-mode operation in a flash-lamp-pumped Nd:YAG laser. Synchronization within 2 ns with an external short-pulse laser source was demonstrated.
