Abstract

A novel method for the pulse shortening of the 578 nm spectral line from a CuBr laser is proposed in this paper. By amplifying a seeded picosecond dye laser through the active medium of a CuBr laser, nearly Fourier-transform-limited picosecond pulses of the CuBr laser have been obtained and the output characteristics are also investigated in detail.
