Abstract
By adding a small amount of absorption to many liquids, it is shown that the stimulated Raman emission and self-phase modulated emission pulse trains are radically shortened from that of a long pulse train of a mode-locked picosecond laser. The first pulses in a picosecond pulse train are more efficient in producing self-focusing because of self-absorption.
