Abstract
To compare active and passive mode locking the colliding pulse mode-locking technique brought an important advance in narrowing the pulse, in enhancing the peak power, and in increasing the stability of output. Fork et al.1 first achieved a train of optical pulses with a 90 × 10−5-sec width in a cw dye colliding-pulse mode-locked laser. Soon after this technique was used in a YAG laser.2
