Test of a semiempirical equation describing laser beam divergence
Description
A semiempirical equation describing laser beam divergence for a flat-flat laser resonator taking into consideration the resonator Q is tested. This equation describing beam divergence consists of two parts: a contribution due to diffraction and distortion in the resonator material and a term which accounts for cavity geometry and photon lifetime. Good agreement is obtained with experiment.
