Abstract
The authors present the design and modelocking results of a self-start ing additive-pulse modelocked (APM) NaCl:OH-laser, using a novel satur able Bragg reflector (SBR) as the starting mechanism. This new SBR/APM laser produces similar to 200fs pulses without dedicated dispersion c ompensating optics, and maintains a stable pulse train even without ac tive cavity length stabilisation.
