Abstract

In this work we study the influence of the additional second- and third-order dispersion introduced in a femtosecond laser cavity by varying the beam's penetration into a prism of the double-pass intracavity prism compressor on the output pulse duration, as well as on the emission spectral bandwidth and its central wavelength. The theoretically calculated pulse durations are found to be in a good agreement with the respective experimental data from frequency-resolved optical gating and interferometric autocorrelation measurements.
