Dynamics of Ultrashort Pulse Generation and Amplification in Dye Lasers

“…It was not until the synchronously pumped mode-locked dye laser produced intense, stable picosecond optical pulses that extensive theoretical investigations were begun [3]. The synchronous pumping concept was first demonstrated in 1968 using a pulsed pump source [4][5][6]. However, the technique remained of limited practical value until cw mode-locked pump sources were exploited [7,8].…”

“…FWl표t1 of the input pulse is chosen as 1 ps, 100 fs and 10 월， the pump threshold parameter r is lx lO4 , and the amplifier cell length is 1 cm. With these parameters, solutions ofEqs.…”

Generation and measurement of frequency-tunable picosecond pulses from dye lasers

“…While subpicosecond pulses were first obtained from dye lasers optically pumped by mode-locked ruby [1,2], or the second harmonic of mode-locked neodymium:glass lasers [3,4], the shortest pulses are produced by passively mode-locked systems [5]. By employing powerful linear air flashlamps to pump Rhodamine 6G, and immersing one laser cavity mirror in the saturable absorber solution, 100 ~o modulated pulse trains were first achieved [6] in a passively mode-locked dye laser.…”

Mode-locked CW dye lasers

“…Picosecond pulses have been obtained by pumping dyes with pulsed mode-locked lasers [1][2][3] and by placing a saturable absorber in the cavity of flashlamp pumped dye lasers [4][5][6].…”
