Ultrashort pulses generated by mode-locked lasers with either a slow or a fast saturable-absorber response.
We present a new exact solution for ultrashort pulses generated by passively mode-locked lasers, taking into account the slow and the fast parts of the semiconductor saturable-absorber response in the nonsaturated limit.
