| Abstract: | Abstract A general formalism for the calculation of group velocity dispersion of laser cavities containing elements with angular or lateral dispersion is developed. This formalism is applied to the cavity of a ring laser with one prism and to a cavity with two antiparallel prisms. The calculated results are in agreement with experimental findings for such lasers. |
