Abstract
Intense ultrashort light pulses are generated i) by two-photon induced amplified spontaneous emission in a dye generator cell and ii) by two-photon induced seeding pulse amplification of a picosecond light continuum. The generated signals are amplified in a twophoton pumped dye amplifier. A passively mode-locked Nd: glass laser is used as pump source. Ligh pulses in the spectral region between 565 and 630 nm are generated in the dyes rohodamine B, rhodamine 6G, and PYC.
