Abstract: | Mode-locked operation has been achieved in a CW pumped Cr/sup 3+/:LiSr/sub 0.8/Ca/sub 0.2/AlF/sub 6/ laser. Pulses of 150 fs duration were directly generated from the actively mode-locked laser. A CW krypton laser operating with 1 W in the red was used to pump the 15 mm long crystal.<> |
