Giant pulse ruby laser and a holographic system for laser parameter measurement

Three areas concerning a giant pulse ruby laser are dealt with in this work. First, the semi-classical theory of a giant pulse ruby laser utilizing a saturable absorber Q-switch is developed. Second, a novel holographic system for measuring various laser parameters of the giant pulse ruby laser is d...
