Harder, Better, Faster, Steadier... Ultra-Low-Noise Mode-Locked-Lasers

How are the shortest pulses of light created? What are they used for? What limits the stability of short-pulse lasers and how can we improve them? In this talk, Tyko will review the fundamental theory behind the operation of stable mode-locked lasers and present on recent work in achieving extremely low-noise pulse trains at a high repetition rate.
