Abstract
Summary form only. The powerful neodymium lasers (Nd:YAG, Nd:YALO, Nd:glass) with self-phase-conjugation (SPC), self Q-switching and LiF:F/sub 2//sup -/ passive Q-switching (PQS) are investigated. Dynamic holographic gratings, which are written down directly in gain medium and in PQS, form the adaptive cavities by four-wave mixing of laser beams.
