A laser contains a Ti:sapphire rod of length 5mm and composed of a material with n=1.76 and n2=1x10-19m2 w-1 The FWHM (intensity) beam diameter is 100µum, the average intra-cavity lase power is 8W, the pulse duration is 53fs and the pulse repetition frequency is 64MHZ. By considering the optical Kerr effect, by what distance (in nm) does the center of the beam lag behind the FWHM points after propagating the length of the rod?

A laser contains a Ti:sapphire rod of length 5mm and composed of a material with n=1.76 and
n2=1x10-19m2 w-1 The FWHM (intensity) beam diameter is 100µm, the average intra-cavity laser
power is 8W, the pulse duration is 53fs and the pulse repetition frequency is 64MHZ.
By considering the optical Kerr effect, by what distance (in nm) does the center of the beam lag
behind the FWHM points after propagating the length of the rod?
