By solving the eigen-equation, the axisymmetrical PCR with finite aperture is calculated, and the diffraction losses, phase shifts, relative amplitude and phase distributions on each mirror surface of various order transverse modes (including high-order modes, whose l≥2, p≥1) are introduced.A quasi-equivalence relation of PCR is also given. According to this relation, some characteristics (as the diffraction loss, the field distribution on the surface of spherical mirror) of all transverse modes in a PCR are just the same as those in some of the other PCR with different g_1.Some examples of calculation results are also given. They show that (ⅰ) the convengence of the above-mentioned equation is very good, (ⅱ) the calculation results with very high precision can be obtained practically, and the characteristics of TEM with very small or large losses can also be calculated precisly and (ⅲ) the choice of the reference light field does not affect correctness of the theory but affects the amount of calculation.Only the PCR with only one PCM being one of the two endreflectors of resonators is discussed, and the effect of response time of the PCM is ignored in this paper. 收起
