Generation of a single tunable ultrashort light pulse
Abstract
A novel system for generating single tunable ultrashort light pulses of high power is described. The pulse train from a mode-locked flashlamp pumped dye laser passes through an amplifier, which is pumped by an N 2 laser. As gain is only available for a few nsec, only one pulse in the train gets amplified. The energy of the resulting single pulse is about 100 μJ.
