摘要：

Unstable resonators constructed of totally reflecting optics are particularly sensitive to extra-cavity feedback.This is demonstrated experimentally by reflecting the attenuated output of an injection mode-locked TEA CO2 laser, fitted with a confocal unstable resonator, back into the laser resonator.Even after attenuation by -106, significant perturbation (≳10%) could be observed in the temporal characteristics of the output train.A theory of extra-cavity feedback in the geometric limit is presented.© 1979 Optical Society of America.
