K. Li et al., Generation of negative group-velocity dispersion by a single prism and wedge mirror in femtosecond lasers, OPT ENG, 38(11), 1999, pp. 1801-1805
The mathematical formulae of the optical path length and the negative group
-velocity dispersion in a single-prism and wedge mirror system in a Ti:sapp
hire laser are given. Both the theoretical analyses and the experimental re
sults show that the group-velocity dispersion is directly proportional to t
he distance between the prism and the Ti:sapphire crystal, and the amount o
f the negative group-velocity dispersion generated by a single-prism and we
dge mirror system may approach that generated by a pair of prisms. (C) 1999
