Abstract
An experimental investigation was made of the conditions for the gener ation of ultrashort pulses in a dye laser with light-induced distribut ed feedback. Experiments involving excitation of this laser with singl e-frequency and multifrequency radiation in the form of the second har monic of an YAG:Nd3+ laser showed that in an these cases the ultrashor t pulses were generated in the distributed-feedback laser by excitatio n of relaxation oscillations of the level populations and self-Q switc hing of the laser caused by such excitation.
