Abstract
The development of ultrashort pulse solid state lasers is important for a wide range of ultrafast studies. The Ti:Al2O3 laser has an extremely broad tuning range from 670 nm to greater than 1000 nm and thus is a natural choice for femtosecond generation and spectroscopy. The diode pumped Nd:YAG and Nd:YLF have the potential for developing an compact ultrashort pulse source suitable for applications in electro-optic sampling and high speed signal processing.
