Popis: By using a bulk GaAs as an output coupler as well as a saturable absorber, with changing of concentration of defects inside the laser cavity, Q-switching of flash-lamp pumped Nd:YAG laser has been studied. It is shown that the mechanism of formation of the laser pulses, in a wide range of duration which were reported in a lot of previous papers is caused by the intracavity changes of the defect concentration in a GaAs.
