Kerr - lens mode - locked femtosecond laser
We have measured the frequency of the 6s S1/2 − 5d D3/2 electricquadrupole transition of Yb with a relative uncertainty of 1 × 10, νY b = 688 358 979 309 312 Hz ± 6 Hz. A femtosecond frequency comb generator was used to phase-coherently link the optical frequency derived from a single trapped ion to a cesium fountain controlled hydrogen maser. This measurement is one of the most accurate measur...
متن کامل240-fs pulses with 22-W average power from a mode-locked thin-disk Yb:KY(WO(4))(2) laser.
We demonstrate what is to our knowledge the first passively mode-locked thin-disk Yb:KY(WO(4))(2) laser. The laser produces pulses of 240-fs duration with an average power of 22 W at a center wavelength of 1028 nm. At a pulse repetition rate of 25 MHz, the pulse energy is 0.9microJ , and the peak power is as high as 3.3 MW. The beam quality is very close to the diffraction limit, with M(2)=1.1 .
متن کاملGeneration of 33-fs pulses from a passively mode-locked Cr(3+):LiSrAlF(6) laser.
Femtosecond and picosecond operating regimes of an argon-ion-pumped Cr(3+):LiSrAlF(6) laser, passively mode locked using a saturable absorber, are described. At low absorber concentrations, self-starting cw mode locking is demonstrated, which yields pulses as short as 33 fs after extracavity prism compensation. At higher concentrations, both cw mode-locked and Q-switched mode-locked operation i...
متن کاملKerr-lens mode-locked visible transitions of a Pr:YLF laser.
We report what is to our knowledge the first Kerr-lens mode locking of the visible transitions at 607 and 639 nm in Pr:YLF. Initiation of the self-mode locking took place through the use of liquid saturable absorbers to establish saturation parameters, and it was carried out in optimized all-solid-state laser configurations (but with gas-laser pumping) with thin s,100-mmd colloidally colored Cd...
متن کاملHigh-brightness fiber laser-pumped 68 fs-2.3 W Kerr-lens mode-locked Yb:CaF2 oscillator.
By using a high-brightness fiber pump laser, we demonstrate a pure Kerr-lens mode-locked (ML) Yb:CaF(2) oscillator. The laser delivers 68 fs pulses with 2.3 W average power at 73 MHz repetition rate and an optical-to-optical efficiency of 33% is achieved. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first demonstration of Kerr-lens mode-locking in Yb:CaF(2). Incidentally, we report here the highes...
