Robust synchronization was achieved in a hybrid configuration for three-color high-repetition-rate ultrashort modelocked lasers around 800, 1030, and 1560 nm due to fractional amplification and enhanced cross-phase modulation. This hybrid synchronization scheme permits the achievements of timing jit

Abstract
A modified injection seeding setup, which can generate low jitter single mode picosecond optical pulses independent of the repetition rate in principle, was presented in this article. With a gain‐switched DFB laser diode employed as the external injection seeding, a gain‐switched Fabry–Perot laser diode can generate single mode ultrashort optical pulses with 0.76 ps jitter and 24.5 dB side‐mode‐suppression ratios. The time window of jitter decrease for the DFB laser injection pulses, in which the FP laser pulses are insensitive to its repetition rate, is numerically simulated and experimentally demonstrated. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

We report an electro-optical Q-switch ultraviolet laser at 355 nm with narrow width and low repetition rate generated by pulsed-diode side-pumped Nd:YAG/KTP/LBO. The single-pulse energy is measured to be 18.7 mJ with a pulse-width of 7.32 ns at a repetition rate of 1 Hz and a pump current of 120 A.
