Mode control experiments were performed with an unstable TEA repetitive pulsed CO2 laser oscillator. Near- and far-field intensity distributions were obtained that are consistent with theoretical values for a diffraction-limited beam. Performance of the same laser with a stable optical cavity is also given as a reference.
