title: Active mode locking of a neodymium-doped fiber laser using intracavity pulse compression.
abstract: Active mode locking of a Nd(3+)-doped fiber laser with piezoelectrically induced Raman-Nath diffraction modulation is demonstrated. By using intracavity pulse compression, stable pulses of 2.4-psec length are generated at a wavelength of 1054 nm.
