Abstract

The output pulse of a laser depends upon certain properties and, it is the intention here to discuss the change in these properties as a function of temperature. The particular parameters of interest are the time taken for population inversion i.e. the time delay between the application of the pulse and the start of laser action, and the pulse length.
