Abstract: Results of high-speed photographic studies of mode patterns and output polarization of ruby lasers using the STL image-converter camera are discussed. High optical quality ruby rods produce complex mode patterns in every spike and they may change within a spike. These patterns are always located in the center of the rod. A similar study using the STL camera of a ruby rod with the c axis at 1.8° to the rod axis shows that it does emit with a preferential polarization.
