Relaxation oscillations in long-pulsed random lasers

arXiv:physics/0703045

Abstract

We have measured the evolution of the light intensity of a random laser during a nanosecond pump pulse. Relaxation oscillations in a titania random laser were observed in the time trace of the total emitted intensity. We compare our experimental results with a simple model, based on the four-level rate equations for a single mode laser.
