Annualar (HSURIA) resonators: some experimental studies including polarization effects
Abstract
Polarization effects in a half-symmetric unstable resonator with internal axicon (HSURIA) are considered, especially the geometry utilizing a conical end mirror. Measurements were made of the near- and far-field polarization properties and the beam quality of the output from a HSURIA incorporating both a conical and a flat feedback mirror in an annular leg; their characteristics were then compared.
