Abstract

Calculation of wave-front phase distortions caused by small-scale periodical optical inhomogeneities of active medium and by thermal deformations of mirrors and windows in large-scale cw DF laser is performed. The ways of reducing aberrations influence are offered. It shows a possibility to reach the angle divergence of the output laser beam close to diffraction limit.
