Abstract
The femtosecond modelocked laser is one of the most broadband, powerful and coherent light sources available. Recent success in modelocking Ti:sapphire lasers has achieved pulses as short as 5.5 fs, with a corresponding bandwidth extending over more than 300 nm.1 There are several possible applications for this light source. One of them is an improved imaging technique for spectroscopic Optical Coherence Tomography.
