Influence of High-Intensity Pumping on Gain Medium Temperature Increase and Laser Mode Tunability in a Hemispherical Short Cavity

To increase the efficiency of laser oscillators by overcoming losses, the unsaturated gain must be increased. For this purpose, high-intensity pumping, typically higher than 100 kW/cm<sup>2</sup>, is effective. However, the temperature increase and strong thermo-optic effects of the gain...
