Abstract:
Ultrashort laser pulses with a duration of 200 fs were obtained from a passively modelocked external cavity diode laser at 830 nm emission wavelength. By intracavity dispersion control the spectral bandwidth is increased and the emitted pulses are compressed externaly by a grating compressor. A tapered amplifier is used to achieve peak powers of up to 2.5 kW.
