4.22 mode-locked laser (a)consider a He-Ne laser emitting at 632.8nm, and mode-locked. the tube length is 50cm. the spectral with of the optical gain curve is 1.5 GHz Find the mode-locked pulse width and the repetition rate. what is the seperation of pulses in space? (b) consider a Nd^3+ glass laser that is mode-locked. The emission wavelength is 1060 nm and the spectral width of the optical gain curve is 7THz. the refractive index of the laser medium is 1.45. find the mode-locked pulse width and the repetition rate . if the Nd^3+ glass rod is 10cm long, what is the seperation of pules in space?
