Diode-pumped GHz Ti:sapphire and Yb:ceramic lasers for space and astronomy applications

Open Access Open Access

Abstract

We describe the development of Kerr-lens-modelocked oscillators at 800 nm and 1080 nm with repetition rates from 1 GHz to 2.2 GHz and powers around 100 mW. Designs optimising KLM and bonded-optics construction eliminating optomechanics are discussed. These lasers show potential as precision time and frequency sources for astronomy and space applications.
