Abstract

Wavefront aberrations, arising due to active medium optical inhomogeneities and mirrors thermal deformations, influence on the self-filtrating unstable resonator parameters of industrial cw CO₂ lasers were investigated theoretically. The output radiation amplitude- phase performance in the diffractional approximation and the resonator losses were calculated.
