Abstract
Closed ranges of laser parametrs, in wich self-mode-locking takes plac e, have been found on the basis of the fluctuation model of generation of cw solid,state laser with nonlinear polarization Kerr modulator. T he ways of the mode-locking improvement by angular control of the pola rization modulator elements hav been analyzed. The possibility to comp ensate the self-phase modulation influence on ultrashort pulse generat ion by introducing negative group velocity dispersion is shown.
