| Abstract: | In this paper, we present a theoretical analysis of a linear array of square waveguide CO2 lasers phase-coupled with an intracavity spatial filter. Using a Rigrod-like method, we calculate the efficiency of the device and analyze its capability to discriminate between the fundamental mode and the transverse modes of both the array and the individual square waveguide |
