Stable operation of a synchronously pumped colliding-pulse mode-locked ring dye laser.

چکیده
Pulses of 100-fsec duration are obtained by synchronous pumping of a colliding-pulse ring dye laser with a mode-locked Ar(+)-ion laser. Stable operation of the synchronously pumped colliding-pulse mode-locked laser over hours was obtained by a suitable choice of the distance between the gain and the absorber in combination with an appropriate pump-pulse sequence.

Buildup of steady-state subpicosecond and femtosecond pulses in a colliding-pulse mode-locked ring dye laser.
We show for the first time, to our knowledge, that the buildup time to steady-state femtosecond pulses in a typical colliding-pulse mode-locked dye laser (lambda = 620 nm) with compensating prisms is 15 microsec after the pulses have been completely modulated. For a similar laser without the compensating prisms, the buildup time is 40 microsec and exhibits interesting oscillatory behavior in th...
متن کاملPassive mode locking of a continuous-wave energy-transfer dye laser operating in the near infrared around 750 nm.
The passive mode locking of an argon-ion-pumped energy-transfer cw dye laser operating in the near infrared is reported. The dyes 1,1'-diethyl-4,4'-carbocyanine iodide and 1,1'-diethyl-2,2' -dicarbocyanine iodide were used separately to mode lock a gain medium comprising the dyes DCM and Rhodamine 700. Subpicosecond pulses were generated from 732 to 761 nm in a simple linear cavity, and pulses ...
متن کاملPassively mode-locked cw Coumarin 6 ring dye laser.
The passive mode locking of a cw Coumarin 6 dye laser in a colliding-pulse ring configuration is reported. Pulses of less than 500-fsec duration have been obtained from 518 to 554 nm, with the shortest pulses obtained being of 96-fsec duration.
متن کاملReciprocal passive mode locking of a rhodamine 6G dye laser and the Ar(+) pump laser.
A rhodamine 6G dye laser, internally pumped within the extended cavity of an Ar(+)-ion laser, is mode locked when its cavity length is matched to half that of the pump laser: the 5145-A argon laser line is passively mode locked by the combination of the saturable absorption and the lasing action of the dye, which is in turn synchronously pumped and mode locked. Tunable (5650-5950-A) ~10 psec pu...

Synchronized trains of picosecond laser pulses of two different wavelengths constitute a powerful tool to study fast processes in materials. In the last several years this scheme was used to study vibrational dephasing of molecular monolayers on surfaces,’ optical nonlinearities in the polydiacetylene PTS conjugated polymer,“‘3 and the solvent dependance of the rotational diffusion of Cresyl Vi...
