Article Abstract

The cavity dispersion noncoaxiality (CDN) effects on broadband few-cycle pulse generation of a Kerr-lens mode-locked Ti:sapphire laser is investigated theoretically and experimentally. It is found that the influence of CDN is comparable with that of self-focusing and self-phase-modulation in the frequency-dependent mode size (FDMS) effects. Spectra extending from 680 nm to 1020 nm with pulse duration shorter than three optical cycles are favorably generated under the minimum CDN in the vicinity of the coaxial point of the sub-cavity.
