Abstract

Two synchronized operating modes of femtosecond and picosecond pulses, cross mode-locking and multi-pulse operating, are presented in a two-beam-pumped dual-wavelength Ti:sapphire laser. For the cross mode-locking mode, synchronized laser pulses of 37.5 fs and 0.891ps, with a timing jitter of 139 fs, are obtained in the femtosecond cavity and picosecond cavity, respectively. For the multi-pulse mode, pulses of 35 fs are obtained in the femtosecond cavity, whereas, multi-pulse mode appears in the picosecond cavity, with a pulse envelope width of 1.06 ps. The two operating modes can be switched from one to the other, dominated mainly by the mutual interaction between cross-phase modulation and self-amplitude modulation.
