Abstract: | Analytical expressions have been obtained in a linear approximation for the amplitude-detuning characteristic of a CO2 laser with simultaneous modulation of two its parameters. It is shown that the value and form of the laser response can be controlled over a wide range by way of changing the modulation frequency, the value of the detuning, and the phase difference of the oscillations of the simultaneously modulated parameters.
