in the sub-100-fs regime. Pulses as short as 35 fs were generated at an average output
power of 1.6 W. These are the shortest pulses directly emitted from a thin-disk laser
oscillator. The optical spectrum of the 35-fs pulses is almost 3 times broader than the
corresponding emission band of the gain crystal. At slightly longer pulse duration of 49 fs,
we achieve an average power of 4.5 W. In addition, 10.7 W are obtained in 88-fs pulses …
