Abstract :
Flashlamp pumped coumarin 153 and rhodamine 110 dye lasers have been passively mode-locked for the first time using the saturable absorber 2-(p-dimethylaminostyryl)-benzthiazolylethyl iodide to produce pulses as short as 3 ps with pulse powers of up to 5 MW in a spectral range not previously covered.
