Kerr-lens or self-mode-locked Ti:sapphire lasers are known to display several modes of operation, depending on the values taken by the system's parameters. The basic observed modes of operation are: continuous wave, mode ...

In this paper, I present the numerical demonstration of a simple way to reduce the pulse duration of a Kerr lens mode locked Ti:Sapphire laser. The core of the method lies in the low dimensional deterministic chaos that ...

Kerr lens mode locked Ti:Sapphire lasers can operate in at least two pulsed modes. Several models were developed with the aim to describe the characteristics of these modes. Those based on iterative maps, can reproduce the ...

Femtosecond pulse Ti:sapphire lasers can operate in different ways for the same values of the control parameters. This phenomenon of multistability is explained in a simple way by a theoretical approach using iterative or ...

By combining first-principles electronic structure calculations and existing time-differential γ-γ perturbed-angular-correlation experiments we studied the site localization, the local environment, and the electronic ...
