摘要：

We present a computer simulation of the mode-locking process in a pulsed Nd:YAG laser with a nonlinear mirror based on second-harmonic generation. For the first time to our knowledge, a frequency-domain description of the passive mode-locking process is presented, which provides complete information for the amplitude and phase evolution of the individual modes. The mode locking is described as being due to the interaction of the longitudinal modes in the nonlinear mirror through second-harmonic and sum- and difference-frequency generation.
