MODE-LOCKING WITH REDUCED NONLINEARITY USING GAIN-MATCHED OUTPUT COUPLERS |
摘要 |
A laser cavity includes a gain medium for amplifying a light pulse in a light path, wherein the gain medium has a gain profile for amplifying the light pulse as a function of wavelength; at least one mirror on one side of the gain medium; and an output coupler. The output coupler has an output coupling profile for inducing loss in the light pulse as a function of wavelength that substantially matches the saturated gain profile of the gain medium across a range of lasing wavelengths. The purpose of this device is to achieve a flattened net-gain profile to substantially improve mode-locking performance with respect to self-starting, beam-quality, and broadband operation. |
