The recent observation of self-modelocking in Ti:sapphire lasers, first reported by Spence et al. and then confirmed at many laboratories,2-5 has clearly established that this mode-locking scheme is a most powerful source of femtosecond pulses. The physical origin of the self-modelocking regime is generally attributed to self-foeusing, although the understanding is far from complete.
