摘要：

The performance of a Q-switched laser at a fixed pump power can be optimized through the proper choice of output coupler. Using the rate equations, we derive simple expressions for the maximum peak power, maximum pulse energy, and minimum pulsewidth of a single Q-switched output pulse; the maximum power efficiency of a repetitively Q-switched laser; and the corresponding cavity output couplings.
