Abstract
Various noninertial nonlinear optical effects of electronic character that can be used as the basis of noninertial nonlinear elements capable of laser control, e.g., mode locking, separation of a single pulse, shaping a flat-top pulse, chopping a pulse, or stabilizing the emission, are condidered. The transmission of all such nonlinear filters is described in like fashion on the basis of a piecewise-linear approximation. The results are compared in a table. Various laser regimes with a similar noninertial elements inside a ring cavity are investigated theoretically.
