Abstract

Previous systems for generating pulses of <20-fs duration have used an amplified CPM laser in combination with pulse compression. While these systems have generated the shortest optical pulses,1 the amplifiers limited the repetition rate. The amplified pulses needed to be attenuated to prevent fiber damage and thus these systems produced average powers of <1 mW. We have generated pulses as short as 17 fs by pulse compressing the output of a regeneratively mode-locked Ti:sapphire laser.
