The thermal dispersion and thermally-induced birefringence were considered when the gain medium becomes an anisotropic medium. The results showed considerable modifications of laser modes profiles, in particular for transfer magnetic (TM) and transfer electric (TE) modes which their polarization vectors possess radial and azimuthal components. }, URL = {http://ijop.ir/article-1-225-en.html}, eprint = {http://ijop.ir/article-1-225-en.pdf}, journal = {International Journal of Optics and Photonics}, doi = {}, year = {2008} }
