✦ Synopsis
Two types of electro-optically Q-switched Er:Cr:YSGG
lasers with different polarizing mechanisms have been operated.
For the one Q-switching and polarizing are realized with only a
LiNbO~3~ crystal with both ends cut at Brewster's angle and for
the other they are achieved by a cubic LiNbO~3~ crystal and a
Glan-Taylor prism, respectively. The two schemes are compared with
regard to both the mechanical and laser Q-switched properties.
