Mode locking in a self-starting laser with cavity completed by fast holographic grating

Summary form only given. Self-starting lasers with an holographic cavity formed by dynamic gratings induced by generating beams have been realized using different nonlinear media. In this report we present the results of our investigation of the possibility for self-mode locking in self-starting lasers with a cavity formed with participation of dynamic gratings induced in a dye-doped polymer layer with fast optical nonlinearity of saturation absorption.
