摘要

The output far-field intensity distributions of off-axial cylindrical hybrid resonator with different mirror misalignments are simulated by coordinate transformation fast Fourier-transform algorithm. The simulations showed that the mirror misalignments influence is different in anticlockwise and clockwise tilt direction. According to the calculation results, the output beam quality of off-axial unstable resonator is analyzed, from the aspects of M-2 value and power in the bucket curves. Furthermore, the analysis brings out an interesting contradiction that the beam quality changing evaluated by M-2 value is different from that by power in the bucket curves when the mirror misalignments occurred in anticlockwise direction. It demonstrated that the beam quality evaluation of off-axial unstable resonator should not be one-sided.
