Abstract:Based on the Jones matrix theory, a polarization maintaining 2 μm ring laser with a cavity structure of corner cube prisms (CCPs) is firstly presented in this paper. The changes of polarization state are simulated and coincide with the corresponding 2.06 μm experimental results for output beams after the CCP. Research results show that if the incident beam is circularly polarized or linearly polarized, the output beam will be generally elliptically polarized. Only when the polarization azimuths of linearly pol… Show more
