  • Abstract
    Optical pulses up to 1.25 Gbit/s were obtained with a Nd3+:YAG laser by multiple mode locking. The carrier frequency of mode-locked pulses was tuned through several tens of gigahertz by tilting an intracavity tuning etalon. Some detuning effects in forced mode locking will be also presented.
