Abstract

Analysis of existing femtosecond ring lasers led to a fairly complete understanding of the mechanisms of their short-pulse generation and compression.1,2 Accurate diagnostic methods that have been developed confirmed details (pulse shape and phase modulation) of the theory.3 It should thus be possible to design a laser based on that theory. Our main requirements are: a minimum number of intracavity elements; a cavity simple enough to make a complete parametric study possible; tight focusing in the absorber; standing wave saturation; an adjustable repetition rate.
