Q-switched pulse

A laser output that occurs when the cavity resonator Q is first kept very low, using rotating mirrors or saturable absorbers, so that the population inversion achieved is greater than usual. A high intensity, short pulse of coherent radiation is emitted when the Q is raised to its normal value.
