Abstract
It is shown theoretically that both asymmetric and symmetric ultrashor t pulses of extremely short durations can be generated in solid-state lasers with external frequency modulation and self-phase-modulation of the field. It is pointed out that the frequency of external modulatio n can be anomalously low compared with the frequency corresponding to the intermode interval.
