Abstract
We present a simple design for obtaining high-intensity, Fourier limited picosecond pulses. A Nd : Yag picosecond laser is used to synchronously pump a dye oscillator/amplifier system. The dye oscillator is of the Littman type. Up to 1.5 mJ of energy is obtained in a 20 ps pulse with a bandwidth of 30 GHz after amplificationKeywords
