摘要：

The lasing performance of a Tm,Ho:YLF microchip laser with an external etalon is examined. The configuration is featured by its high finesse in comprising multiple etalons. An output power of 27 mW in single mode operation is achieved, although the oscillation is very sensitive to deviation of the external etalon. The idea of an oscillation mechanism suggests the possibility of passive Q-switching. (C) 2000 Published by Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
