description Subject and Purpose. The problems under consideration concern selection and focusing of higher-order modes in a waveguide-based dielectric laser. The purpose is to clarify the physics underlying the behavior of, and permitting control over, continuous terahertz-frequency laser beams of various spatial polarizations.Methods and Methodology. The mode parameters of the waveguide-based laser resonator involving an inhomogeneous phasestepped mirror were calculated in a matrix technique. To analyze the propagation and focusing of the laser beams that can be excited in a variety of diffraction zones by the wave modes of a waveguide-based quasi-optical resonator, a vectorial Rayleigh—Sommerfeld theory was used. The pertinent experimental studies were performed with the use of known measurement methods suitable for the terahertz frequency range.Results. A method for selecting the higher-order EH12q-mode of a terahertz-range laser resonator has been suggested, substantiated theoretically and approbated in experiment. It envisages placing an additional element to perform control over the system’s modal structure, namely a (2.3...2.8) l-wide groove on the surface of one of the resonator mirrors. Th is measure can significantly increase losses for all undesirable modes. At the same time, the losses for the higher EH12q-mode remain practically unchanged, which creates conditions for its predominant excitation. Theoretical and experimental studies of moderate and ‘sharp’ focusing in free space of higher-order modes with different spatial polarizations of a dielectric waveguide-based resonator have been carried out.Conclusion. As has been shown, the proposed phase-stepped mirror with a groove can eff ectively select the higher-order transverse modes that may be required. The linearly polarized EH12q-mode has maximum field intensity in the focal region of the lens employed. For azimuthally polarized TE02q- and TE03q-modes the central lobes, noticeably shifted from the focus of the lens, have a field maximum. An increase in the axial intensity is observed upon ‘sharp’ focusing in the field distribution of the radially polarized TM 02q- and TM03q-modes. In this case their central lobes, like those of the higher TE0nq-modes, are noticeably shifted from the lens focus.Keywords: terahertz laser, dielectric resonator, inhomogeneous mirror, polarization, selection, focusing, high-order modesREFERENCES1.
