ABSTRACT:
A modelocked laser with an unstable resonator configuration is described. The laser relies on adjoint mode feedback with a modulator in the low power feedback beam path which is not part of the main resonator. The optical cavity length and the path length of the feedback beam are adjusted to provide a pulsed, modelocked output beam.
