  • Abstract
    Stable trains of pulses as short as 2 ps have been generated from an ytterbium-erbium, fibre loop laser modelocked through synchronous pumping by the 100 ps, 100 MHz repetition rate pulses of an actively modelocked Nd:YAG laser. Crossphase modulation and soliton shaping are the dominant pulse formation and shaping mechanisms.
