Description

We revealed experimentally and explained the generation of a second giant pulse at the neighboring longitudinal mode in an Nd:YLF Q-switched laser. The delay between two pulses was about 100 ns. Based on this effect, a new method of longitudinal mode selection was implemented. (letter)
