Abstract

A simple linear highly astigmatic laser cavity design has been analysed theoretically and demonstrated experimentally with Nd:YVO4. This cavity design is appropriate for high-power diode-laser-array end-pumping. The cavities presented are capable of generating Gaussian beams with general astigmatism, which have principal axes which rotate on propagation.
