  • Abstract
    Laser mode coupling produced by oscillatory motion of a cavity mirror is analyzed by means of a quasi-normal mode expansion of the cavity field which satisfies the time-dependent boundary conditions. The quasi-normal mode-coupling equations are identical in form to the coupled-mode equations for the phase-modulated fixed length laser.
