“…Typically, very broad gain media are used for ultra-short pulse lasers, like Ti:Sapphire, Yb:KGW, Yb:fiber, Er:fiber, Er/Yb:glass, Cr:LiSaF. Their basic parameters and exemplary results achieved with those media are summarized in Table 1 [4][5][6][7][8][9][10]. The pulse temporal duration and spectral width are bound together with a parameter, called time-bandwidth product (TBP).…”
