  • Abstract
    We show in this contribution that even in conventional lasers it is incorrect to regard the lasing modes as corresponding to a single resonance of the passive cavity and that multiple spatial frequencies occur even when there is a single lasing frequency close to the frequency of a single passive cavity resonance. These multiple spatial frequencies arise because several CF states contribute to a single lasing mode.
