Femtosecond-pulse laser chirp compensated by cavity-mirror dispersion.

چکیده
The duration of pulses generated from a simple colliding-pulse mode-locked cw dye laser is measured as a function of cavity-mirror dispersion. The optimum amount of mirror dispersion of ø (omega) congruent with + 1.8 x 10(-28) sec(2) and a suitable mirror coating for upchirp compensation are identified. The adjustment of mirror dispersion only, without additional dispersive elements, generates continuous trains of pulses as short as 50 fsec.

Multilayer Thin Films Dielectric Double Chirped Mirrors Design
The double chirped mirror DCM appeared to meet the need to compensate for the gain crystal dispersion of solid state lasers in a broad wavelength range. Compared to earlier dispersion compensation techniques, they enabled remarkable improvements in the field of generating ultra short pulses. When ultra broad band gain media are used inside laser cavities, cavity dispersion plays an important ro...

In this paper, the propagation of a Gaussian and femtosecond laser pulse through a plasma channel is considered and the amount of induced chirp, as well as it’s type, on laser pulse frequency has been investigated. The group velocity dispersion (GVD) and relativistic effects has been taken into account in propagation equations. It is concluded that the relativistic effect induces positive chirp...
متن کاملIntensity Correlation Analysis on Blue-Violet Femtosecond Pulses from a Dispersion-Compensated GaInN Mode-Locked Semiconductor Laser Diode
We investigated the spectral and temporal characteristics of blue-violet femtosecond optical pulses generated by a passively mode-locked GaInN laser diode in a dispersion-compensated external cavity. The output optical pulses at 400 nm were analyzed in detail by intensity autoand cross-correlation measurements using second harmonic generation on the surface of a β-BaB2O4 crystal. The obtained r...

A backward dark-optical-comb-injection mode-locked semiconductor optical amplifier fiber laser (SOAFL) with a femtosecond pulse width and an ultrahigh supermode-noise suppressing ratio (SMSR) is primarily demonstrated. The mode-locked SOAFL pulse with a spectral linewidth of 0.45 nm is shortened from 15 to 8.6 ps under chirp compensation in a 420 m long dispersion-compensated fiber, correspondi...
متن کاملStretched pulse Yb3+ :Silica Fibre Laser
We report what we believe to be the first results on short pulse generation in Yb3’:silica fibre. By applying the stretched pulse technique in a unidirectional, polarisation-switch Yb> fibre laser incorporating a prism-based dispersive delay line, we obtain self-start mode-locking and 100 pJ pulses which can be compressed to give clean chirp-free 400 fs pulses. We believe such sources to have g...
