“…A Coherent power meter was used to measure the average output power.The experimental normalized average power versus the pump polarization angle is shown inFigure 8, where the open, filled squares and the open circles represent the pump levels of 1.3, 1.46 and 2.83, respectively. Using the methods deGcribed in Reference[47], the pl~ak-to-peak time delay was also evaluated, and the results are shown inFigure 9by the 0 lPen and filled triangles. CONCLUSION With a linearly polarized pumping field, the pulsations of a synchronously pumped mode-locked dye laser have been shown to depend strongly on the pump polarization angle.…”
