Abstract:
1. A method of controlling output pulses of a pulse laser device including a thin-disk laser medium, in particular controlling at least one of a carrier-envelope phase and an intensity of the output pulses, said method comprising the steps of pumping the thin-disk laser medium of the pulse laser device with multiple pump laser diodes, which include at least one modulated laser diode which is powered by a current source with modulation capability, and controlling the output pulses by modulating an output power of the at least one modulated laser diode, which is modulated by controlling a drive current thereof, wherein the pump laser diodes further include at least one stable laser diode, which has a constant output power, and the output power of the at least one modulated laser diode is smaller than a whole output power of the at least one stable laser diode.
