At a proper choice of the amplifying gain and the absorption losses, this situation will automatically be realized in the passively mode-locked ring dye laser. It leads to an energetically favorable stable operation, which is called colliding-pulse mode (CPM) locking, and the whole system is termed a CPM laser. This mode of operation results in particularly short pulses down to 50 fs. There are several reasons for this pulse shortening ... [Pg.289]

The advent of ultrafast pump-probe laser techniques62 and their marriage with the TOF method also enables study of internal ion-molecule reactions in clus-ters.21,63-69 The apparatus used in our experiments is a reflectron TOF mass spectrometer coupled with a femtosecond laser system. An overview of the laser system is shown in Figure 4. Femtosecond laser pulses are generated by a colliding pulse mode-locked (CPM) ring dye laser. The cavity consists of a gain jet, a... [Pg.193]
