Copper-vapor laser with self-starting LiNbO(3) nonlinear mirror.
A copper-vapor laser with a self-starting nonlinear mirror in a photorefractive LiNbO(3):Fe crystal is described. The nonlinear mirror is a reflection-type volume phase grating recorded in the crystal by a superradiance beam of the active copper-vapor tube.
