Frequency-dependent mode size in Kerr-lens mode-locked lasers

Abstract

Recent advances in cavity design and dispersion management have resulted in the generation of pulses of approximately 8-fs duration from laser oscillators based on broadband solid-state gain media,1 The basic mechanisms of self-focusing mode-locking (also called Kerr-lens mode-locking, KLM) are now well established.2 Here we examine the connection between wavelength and spatial mode that occurs in KLM lasers because self-phase modulation and self-focusing have the same underlying origin.
