Passive Mode Locking with a Hybrid Laser

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

It has been shown that a hybrid laser, which contains both an inhomogeneously broadened and a homogeneously broadened laser media, can improve the active mode locking performance.1,2 It generates coherent and shorter pulses as compared to that by either the inhomogeneously broadened medium or the homogenously broadened medium alone. In this paper, we present the results of a numerical study of passive mode locking with a hybrid laser. Gains of hybrid laser can be adjusted to ensure starting of the mode locking process and control the pulse bandwidth to within the lockable optical bandwidth that is governed by the absorber properties and group velocity dispersion (GVD).
