Abstract :
Forced and spontaneous phase locking of the transverse modes of a He-Ne laser have been observed in the form of a scanning fundamental beam. Scans of about four resolvable spots were obtained by locking approximately seven modes with a tilting mirror modulator. With careful alignment of the laser, spontaneous locking of the scanning beam type was also observed.
