Shortening of travelling-wave-amplified spontaneous emission by a transversal pumping scheme
Abstract
An experimental investigation on shortening of traveling-wave amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) employing a transversal pumping is presented. A N2 laser with 337.1 nm wavelength and of 700 ps is used as a pump source. An ASE pulse with duration of 45, 55 and 45 ps from dye solution of Rh 6G, Rh B and C311, respectively, is obtained. Pulse shapes of output signals generated from these solutions in three different pumping schemes are compared.
