Widely-tunable femtosecond operation of Cr:LiSAF lasers using broadband saturable bragg reflectors

Widely-tunable femtosecond operation of Cr:LiSAF lasers using broadband saturable bragg reflectors

We describe a low-cost diode-pumped Cr:LiSAF laser, mode-locked using a broadband saturable Bragg reflector. The laser produces continuously tunable sub-200-fs pulses from 800 nm to 905 nm.
