The evolution dynamics of mode locking for a solid-state femtosecond Yb∶KGW laser is demonstrated and detected with time-stretch dispersive Fourier transform(DFT)technique for the first time,to the best of our knowledge.The Yb∶KGW laser is constructed first with a classical X-shaped cavity,and SESAM-assisted Kerr lens mode locking is obtained.Then,a DFT device is built to record the buildup and extinction dynamics of the mode-locked laser.The results suggest that the time of extinction is slightly shorter than the buildup time and both of them experience complex transitions.The results indicate that DFT could also be suitable to detect the transient buildup and extinction process in solid-state lasers,which would help investigate both the evolution of mode locking and characteristics determination for solid-state lasers.
