  • Abstract
    This article explains the design process for a SMMW ring laser resonator using a single focussing mirror for optical pump beam and SMMW beam guiding. The features of two prototype systems which have been optimized for the 119 μm methanol line are presented. Measurement results concerning output power and beam quality of realized systems are presented
