Pulse-train instabilities of a synchronously pumped mode-locked dye laser: experimental phase plots

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We present experimental phase plots of the pulse-train instability that occurs in synchronously pumped mode-locked dye lasers. From these plots we infer that the instability is of a quasi-periodic, nonlinear dynamical nature. Further, we note that the information lost in this two-dimensional representation is precisely the periodic-versus-erratic character and therefore is of considerable importance.
