Passively mode locked c.w. dye lasers operating from 490 nm to 800 nm

P.M.W. French , J.A.R. Williams , J.R. Taylor

Passively mode locked c.w. dyes lasers now represent an important source of femtosecond optical pulses tunable through the visible and near infra red spectrum. Pulses as short as 70 fs have been obtained from dispersion-optimised CPM cavity configurations using active/passive dyes other than the standard combination of Rhodamine 6G and DODCI.
