Ultrashort lasers provide an important tool to probe the dynamics of physical systems at very short time-scales, allowing for improved understanding of the performance of many devices …
This paper will review and discuss pico-and femtosecond pulse generation from passively modelocked vertical–external-cavity surface-emitting semiconductor lasers (VECSELs). We …
The performance of ultrafast semiconductor disk lasers has rapidly advanced in recent decades. The strong interest from industry for inexpensive, compact, and reliable ultrafast …
This work present a comprehensive discussion of the noise properties of mode-locked lasers, with an emphasis on the effect of quantum noise in passively mode-locked solid-state …
This graduate-level textbook starts with Maxwell's equations. If the reader finds this reasonable, this book should be helpful. Focusing on ultrafast solid-state laser oscillators …

In this paper we present the first semiconductor disk laser (SDL) emitting simultaneously two collinearly overlapping cross-polarized gigahertz modelocked pulse trains with different …
Optically pumped passively modelocked semiconductor disk lasers (SDLs) provide superior performance in average output power, a broad range of operation wavelengths, and …
We review progress in the development of an unconventional type of semiconductor laser that has become the focus of much attention in recent years. The vertical-external-cavity …
The efficient passive mode-locking of a Ti: sapphire laser with a monolayer graphene saturable absorber is demonstrated for the first time. High-quality and large-area (1 in.) …
